Two anion probes 1 and 2 featuring the dipyrrole carboxamide moiety for anion recognition have been prepared. These structurally simple anion probes display great selectivity for the cyanide anion over other common inorganic anions in semiaqueous environment via the formation of cyanohydrin derivatives.

We attempted to characterize the 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) receptor type/subtype and mediator mechanisms involved in the contractile effects of 5-HT in the in situ autoperfused kidney of long-term diabetic rats. Diabetes was induced in male Wistar rats by a single subcutaneous injection of alloxan. Intra-arterial (i.

We evaluated the renal vascular effects of serotonin in Nomega-Nitro-l-arginine-hypertensive rats (L-NAME, 30 mg/kg/day, administered over 21 days in drinking water), a model of systemic hypertension with glomerular capillary hypertension and renal disease due to chronic blockade of endogenous synthesis of nitric oxide (NO) and compared with those obtained in normotensive rats. Using several agonists and antagonists of 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT), we characterized the receptor subtypes involved in the contractile response to 5-HT in the in-situ autoperfused rat kidney. An intra-arterial (i.

Agonist-induced internalization of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) is a well characterized phenomenon believed to contribute to receptor desensitization. The 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT)2C subtype of serotonin receptor is a GPCR that we have shown to internalize upon agonist incubation. In this study, we have examined the effects of 5-HT2C receptor agonists serotonin, Ro 60-0175 [(S)-2-(6-chloro-5-fluoroindol-1-yl)-1-methylethylamine], and WAY-161503 [(4aR)-8,9-dichloro-2,3,4,4a-tetrahydro-1H-pyrazino[1,2-a]quinoxalin-5(6H)-one]; partial agonists mCPP [1-(m-chlorophenyl)piperazine] and DOI [(+)-1-(2,5-dimethoxy-4-iodophenyl)-2-amino-propane]; inverse agonists SB-206553 [N-3-pyridinyl-3,5-dihydro-5-methylbenzo(1,2-b:4,5-b')dipyrrole-1(2H)carboxamide] and mianserin; and neutral antagonists SB-242084 [6-chloro-5-methyl-1-[[2-[(2-methyl-3-pyridyl)oxy]-5-pyridyl]carbamoyl]-indoline] and 5-methoxygramine on the internalization of a C-terminal green fluorescent protein (GFP)-tagged 5-HT2C receptor (VSV isoform) expressed in transiently transfected human embryonic kidney cells.
