Amitriptyline and femoxetine, but not clomipramine or citalopram, antagonize hyperthermia induced by directly acting 5-hydroxytryptamine-like drugs in heat adapted rats.
5-HT uptake inhibitors and pirenperone (a 5-HT2 receptor antagonist), which in previous experiments antagonized fenfluramine (5-HT releaser)-induced hyperthermia in heat adapted rats, were tested against hyperthermia induced by the directly acting 5-HT agonist--m-CPP and quipazine. Pirenperone and --to a lesser degree--amitriptyline and femoxetine antagonized the hyperthermia. Citalopram and clomipramine were inactive. It is concluded that hyperthermia induced by 5-HT-like drugs in rats is due to the stimulation of the 5-HT2 receptor and that the antagonistic effect of citalopram and clomipramine against fenfluramine-induced hyperthermia might be connected with their effect on the uptake of 5-HT.
