Effect of Serotonin 5-HT <sub>1</sub> , 5-HT <sub>2</sub> , and 5-HT <sub>3</sub> Receptor Antagonists on the Prolactin Response to Restraint and Ether Stress
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Serotonin (5-HT) appears to be involved in the central control of the prolactin (PRL) response to suckling and estrogen. Furthermore, 5-HT may participate in the mediation of stress-induced PRL release. In order further to elucidate the role of 5-HT and the type of 5-HT receptor(s) involved in the PRL response to stress, we investigated the effect of blockade of 5-HT1, 5-HT2 or 5-HT3 receptors on the restraint or ether stress-induced release of PRL in male rats. Pretreatment with the 5-HT1 + 2 receptor antagonist methysergide (0.5 or 2.5 mg/kg i.p.) inhibited or prevented the PRL response to restraint or ether stress. Pretreatment with the 5-HT2 receptor antagonists ketanserin or LY 53857 (0.5 or 2.5 mg/kg i.p.) inhibited the response to restraint or ether stress approximately 30 or 60%, respectively. Higher doses of both 5-HT2 receptor antagonists (10 mg/kg i.p.) had a minor inhibitory effect (5-30% for ketanserin and 50% for LY 53857). Prior intraperitoneal administration of the 5-HT3 receptor antagonists ICS 205-930 or GR 38032F (0.05-2.5 mg/kg i.p.) inhibited the restraint stress-induced PRL release dose-dependently. Both compounds inhibited the PRL response to ether stress, but only the effect of GR was dose-related. The maximal inhibitory effect (70% inhibition of the PRL response to restraint or ether stress) was obtained for both compounds at a dose of 0.1 mg/kg. We conclude that serotonergic neurons are involved in the mediation of the stress-induced PRL release by activation of 5-HT1, 5-HT2 as well as 5-HT3 receptors.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
