Popis: International audience; Serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine; 5-HT) is a potent stimulator of aldosterone secretion in the rat adrenal gland but the type of receptor involved in the mechanism of action of 5-HT remains unknown. The aim of the present study was to determine the pharmacological profile and to clone the receptor responsible for the corticotropic effect of 5-HT in rat glomerulosa cells. A series of 10 serotonergic receptor agonists and 12 receptor antagonists was used to characterize the receptor mediating the effect of 5-HT on aldosterone secretion from perifused rat adrenocortical slices. Correlation analysis between the potencies of the different compounds in our model and those previously reported for various recombinant 5-HT receptors showed that the rat adrenal 5-HT receptor exhibits the same pharmacological profile as the 5-HT(7) receptor transiently expressed in COS-7 cells (r = 0.82 for agonists, p
