Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide. Serotonin (5-HT) is a biogenic monoamine that acts as a neurotransmitter in the central nervous system and as a paracrine, exocrine, or endocrine messenger in peripheral tissues. In this study, we hypothesized that inhibition of serotonin signaling using 5-HT receptor 2B (HTR2B) inhibitors could potentially impede the progression of CRC. We treated CT26 and COLO-205 cells with SB204741, an inhibitor of HTR2B, and evaluated CRC cell proliferation and migration. We then evaluated the effects of HTR2B inhibition in a xenograft mouse model of human colorectal cancer. We also evaluated the role of a novel inhibitor, GM-60186, using both in vitro and in vivo models. RNA sequencing analysis was performed to elucidate the underlying mechanism of the anti-tumor effects of pharmacological inhibition of HTR2B on CRC. In both CRC cell lines and xenograft mouse models, we show that pharmacological inhibition of HTR2B with SB204741 and GM-60186 significantly inhibits CRC cell proliferation and migration. HTR2B inhibition leads to the suppression of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) signaling, a critical pathway in CRC pathogenesis. Notably, transcriptomic analysis reveals distinct gene expression changes associated with HTR2B inhibition, providing insight into its therapeutic potential. In this study, we found that pharmacological inhibition of HTR2B suppressed CRC proliferation via ERK signaling. In addition, we proposed a novel HTR2B inhibitor for the treatment of CRC. This study highlights the potential role of HTR2B signaling in CRC. These inhibitors may contribute to new therapeutics for CRC treatment. |
