High-affinity, specific 3H-5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) binding was analyzed in membrane homogenates of human frontal cortex, caudate, and globus pallidus. 5-HT1A and 5-HT1C binding sites were pharmacologically blocked using 100 nM 8-hydroxy-N,N-dipropyl-2-aminotetralin (8-OH-DPAT) and 100 nM mesulerg
When HRP was injected i.v. in rabbits and guinea pigs, a rapid fall in the number of circulating platelets and the concentration of 5 HT occurred. Platelet aggregates were trapped in lung capillaries. The aggregation was reversible and the return of platelets to the circulation concomitant with a ri
The effects of protriptyline and clomipramine, at concentrations of 10(-7)M to 10(-4)M, were studied in vitro on the uptake of 5-hydroxytryptamine and dopamine uptake in human platelet-rich plasma. It was found that the tertiary amine, clomipramine, was a more potent inhibitor of 5-hydroxytryptamine
