利用培养大鼠视网膜色素上皮(RPE)细胞,我们观察了多种受体激动剂/拮抗剂对RPE细胞内第二信使磷酸肌醇(InsPs)水平的影响。结果表明,5-羟色胺(5-HT)及5-HT2受体激动剂如α-甲基-5-羟色胺、Quipazine、和DOI(1-[2.5dimethoxy-4-iodophenyl]-2-aminopropanc)均刺激大鼠RPE细胞[3H]-InsPs形成,5-HT刺激[3H]-Insps形成的效应可被5-HT2受体拮抗剂Ketanserin完全阻断,而5-HT3,拮抗剂MDL72222对之无阻断作用。5-HT的效应还可被蛋白激酶C激活剂PMA(4β-phorbol12-myristatc13-acetate)部分抑制。结果清晰表明,在大鼠RPE细胞存在着与Insps信使通路相偶联的5-HT2受体。
Using cultured rat retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) cells, we examined the effect of various receptor agonists / antagonists on the second messengers of phosphoinositides (InsPs) in RPE cells. The results showed that serotonin (5-HT) and 5-HT2 receptor agonists such as α-methyl-5-hydroxytryptamine, Quipazine, and DOI (1- [2.5dimethoxy-4-iodophenyl] -2-aminopropanc) Stimulated the formation of [3H] -InsPs in rat RPE cells. The effect of 5-HT stimulation on the formation of [3H] -Insps was completely blocked by Ketanserin, a 5-HT2 receptor antagonist, but not by 5-HT3, antagonist MDL72222 Blocking effect. The effect of 5-HT is also partially inhibited by the protein kinase C activator PMA (4β-phorbol12-myristatc13-acetate). The results clearly show that there is a 5-HT2 receptor coupled to the Insps messenger pathway in rat RPE cells.
