Knockout of 5-HT7 receptor in the mouse mildly modifies the structure and function of dorsal raphe neurons
The serotonin (5-HT) type 7 receptor (5-HT7R) mediates numerous physiological actions of 5-HT in the brain. Mice with a targeted disruption of the 5-HT7R-coding gene are characterized by an altered behavioral phenotype. Modifications of the serotonergic modulation of brain development and of the activity of the 5-HT system in adulthood that are related to ablation of functional 5-HT7Rs might, potentially, underlie the behavioral phenotype described in the literature. The present study was aimed at finding the consequences of 5-HT7R deficiency for the structure and function of single 5-HT neurons of the midline region of the dorsal raphe nucleus (DRN). It was found that while the amplitude of spontaneous excitatory postsynaptic currents recorded from tryptophan hydroxylase-immunoreactive DRN neurons was elevated in 5-HT7R-deficient animals, the excitability of these cells was mildly reduced. A lack of 5-HT7Rs was accompanied by a minor modification of DRN 5-HT neuron morphology. Our findings support the hypothesis that ablation of the 5-HT7R results in an alteration of the function of mouse DRN projection neurons. Further experiments are needed to fully elucidate the effects of the knockout of the 5-HT7R coding gene on the brain 5-HT system.
期刊介绍:
An international multidisciplinary journal devoted to fundamental research in the brain sciences.
Brain Research publishes papers reporting interdisciplinary investigations of nervous system structure and function that are of general interest to the international community of neuroscientists. As is evident from the journals name, its scope is broad, ranging from cellular and molecular studies through systems neuroscience, cognition and disease. Invited reviews are also published; suggestions for and inquiries about potential reviews are welcomed.
With the appearance of the final issue of the 2011 subscription, Vol. 67/1-2 (24 June 2011), Brain Research Reviews has ceased publication as a distinct journal separate from Brain Research. Review articles accepted for Brain Research are now published in that journal.
