1 | However, when constructed in the presence of WAY 100635 (10 nM) the selective and silent 5-HT1A antagonist, there was a significant (P < 0.001) rightward shift of the CP 93129 concentration-response curve in the paroxetine-treated rats but not in the controls, implying a desensitisation of the 5-HT1B autoreceptor by paroxetine. | Paroxetine | 5-hydroxytryptamine receptor 1A | Rattus norvegicus |
2 | However, when constructed in the presence of WAY 100635 (10 nM) the selective and silent 5-HT1A antagonist, there was a significant (P < 0.001) rightward shift of the CP 93129 concentration-response curve in the paroxetine-treated rats but not in the controls, implying a desensitisation of the 5-HT1B autoreceptor by paroxetine. | Paroxetine | 5-hydroxytryptamine receptor 1A | Rattus norvegicus |
3 | These data suggest that chronic paroxetine treatment may desensitise 5-HT1B autoreceptors in the dorsal raphe nucleus but that this effect is unmasked only when the dominant 5-HT1A autoreceptor control is antagonised. | Paroxetine | 5-hydroxytryptamine receptor 1A | Rattus norvegicus |
