Antidepressant-like activity of EMD 386088, a 5-HT6 receptor partial agonist, following systemic acute and chronic administration to rats
- Psychology, BiologyNaunyn-Schmiedeberg's Archives of Pharmacology
- 2015
The obtained findings suggest that EMD 386088 produces antidepressant-like activity after systemic acute and chronic administration which may result from direct stimulation of 5-HT6 receptors.

Exposure to Hypobaric Hypoxia and Reoxygenation Induces Transient Anxiety-Like Behavior in Rat
- Psychology, Biology
- 2013
It is suggested that initial exposure to HH increases transient anxiety-like behavior in rats followed by gradual improvement in mood state on prolonged exposure, and the involvement of serotonergic system in Mood state alteration at high altitude following chronic exposure and reoxygenation is indicated.

Biochemical and Behavioral Evidence for Antidepressant-Like Effects of 5-HT6 Receptor Stimulation
- Psychology, BiologyThe Journal of Neuroscience
- 2007
5-HT6 receptor stimulation may be a mechanism initiating some of the biochemical and behavioral outcomes of 5-HT reuptake inhibitors, such as fluoxetine, which indicates that selective 5- HT6 receptor agonists may represent a novel antidepressant drug class.

Findings suggest that 5-HT6 receptor agonists may represent a new class of potential antidepressant and anxiolytic compounds and could possess a number of advantages over currently available treatments, including rapid onset of anxIOlytic efficacy.

It was concluded that in rats, the efficacy of IMI in counteracting the stress-induced behavioral sequelae is mainly mediated by the activation of D1 dopamine receptors, whereas that of FLX is largely dependent upon the stimulation of post-synaptic 5-HT1A receptors.

The results described in the present paper indicate that the anti-immobility activity of SB-399885 is not connected with 5-HT innervation, and that D(1)- and D(2-like receptors and alpha(2)-adrenoceptors are involved in this action.
