          Abstract

          Cholecystokinin (CCK) and serotonin (5-HT) systems have been shown to cooperate interdependently in control of food intake. To assess mechanisms by which CCK and 5-HT systems interact in control of food intake we examined: (1) participation of CCK-1 and 5-HT3 receptors in 5-HT-induced suppression of sucrose intake; (2) the interaction between CCK and 5-HT in suppression of food intake; (3) the role of CCK-1 and 5-HT3 receptors in mediating this interaction. Intraperitoneal administration of 5-HT (0.25, 0.5 and 1.0 mg/kg) significantly reduced intake compared to control in a dose responsive fashion (r2=0.989). Suppression of food intake by 5-HT was significantly attenuated by prior treatment with the 5-HT3 receptor antagonist ondansetron at each 5-HT dose tested (P<0.05), while blockade of CCK-1 receptors by lorglumide had no effect on 5-HT-induced suppression of intake. Administration of CCK-8 (0.5 microg/kg) or 5-HT (0.5 mg/kg) alone significantly reduced sucrose intake by 22.9 and 22.2% respectively, compared to control (P<0.0001). Co-administration of CCK and 5-HT resulted in a synergistic suppression of intake leading to an overall 48.4% reduction in sucrose intake compared to saline (P<0.0001). Concomitant CCK-1 and 5-HT3 receptor blockade by lorglumide and ondansetron respectively, resulted in a complete reversal of the combined CCK and 5-HT-induced suppression of intake. Independent administration of lorglumide or ondansetron did not alter intake compared to control. These studies provide evidence that 5-HT causes suppression in food intake by acting at 5-HT3, not CCK-1 receptors. Furthermore, CCK and 5-HT interact to produce an enhanced suppression of food intake, an effect mediated through concomitant activation of CCK-1 and 5-HT3 receptors.
