5-hydroxyindolacetic acid (5-HIAA), a main metabolite of serotonin, is responsible for complete Freund's adjuvant-induced thermal hyperalgesia in mice

open access: yesMolecular Pain, 2011
Background The role of serotonin (5-hydroxytrptamine, 5-HT) in the modulation of pain has been widely studied. Previous work led to the hypothesis that 5-hydroxyindolacetic acid (5-HIAA), a main metabolite of serotonin, might by itself influence pain ...

Effect of methysergide pretreatment on thrombin-induced pulmonary oedema in the rat

open access: yes, 1984
Microembolic pulmonary oedema was induced by injection of thrombin (500 NIH units/kg body weight) i.v. in rats in which fibrinolysis had been inhibited by pretreatment with trans-4-aminomethyl-cyclohexanoid-carboxylic acid (AMCA). To evaluate the role of

A dual action of 5-hydroxytryptamine on the ovarian suspensory ligament of the rat

open access: yes, 1976
5-Hydroxytryptamine has a dual effect on the spontaneously contracting rat ovarian ligament, in vitro, a contraction which is antagonized by the prior administration of methysergide and a relaxation of the ligament observed in the methysergide-treated ...

Anomalous responses to histamine stimulation of guinea-pig oesophageal muscularis mucosae

open access: yes, 1991
The incomplete tachyphylaxis of the contractile response to the H-1-stimulants observed on guinea-pig oesophageal muscularis mucosae seems to be H-2- and H-3-antagonist as well as atropine- and tetrodotoxin-resistant.

The pharmacological profile of ovalbumin-induced paw oedema in rats

open access: yesMediators of Inflammation, 2002
Rats are commonly used in anaphylaxis models, mainly in intestinal anaphylaxis. Hypersensitivity mechanisms are complex and they are not clearly defined. Ovalbumin (OVA) is commonly used for studies on the hypersensitivity mechanism.

EFFECTS OF METHYSERGIDE AND RITANSERIN ON THE PROLACTIN AND THYROTROPIN RESPONSES TO TRH IN DEPRESSED-PATIENTS

open access: yes, 1995
Despite extensive study of the effects of various pharmacological agents on the thyrotropin (TSH) and prolactin (PRL) responses to TRH challenge, the effect of serotoninergic agents remains inconclusive. We studied the effect of the serotonin antagonists

Effect of 5-HT on Trica5-HT1 in presence of different concentrations of antagonist.

open access: yes, 2013
Dose-dependent activation of Trica5-HT1 was measured in CHO-WTA11 cells with 1 nM –1 mM 5-HT in presence of 10 nM –1 mM antagonist: (A) prazosin, (B) methysergide and (C) methiothepin.

5‐Hydroxytryptamine‐mediated effects of nicotine on endogenous GABA efflux from guinea‐pig cortical slices

open access: yes, 1995
The effect of nicotine on endogenous basal GABA outflow was studied in guinea‐pig cerebral cortex slices. Nicotine 1.86‐18.6 μmol 1−1 significantly decreased the basal, tetrodotoxin‐sensitive GABA efflux, whereas at higher concentrations (186–620 μmol 1 ...
