ABSTRACT
The neurotransmitter 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT, serotonin) plays an essential role in the regulation of neural activity via multiple receptors. Here, we investigated the functional role of serotoninergic input on the Dahlgren cell population in the caudal neurosecretory system (CNSS) of olive flounder. In this study, the effect of 5-HT on the firing activity of Dahlgren cells was explored in terms of changes in firing frequency and firing pattern using multicellular recording electrophysiology ex vivo, and the role of several 5-HT receptor subtypes in the regulation was determined. The results revealed that 5-HT increased the firing frequency in a concentration-dependent manner and altered the firing pattern of Dahlgren cells. The effect of 5-HT on the firing activity of Dahlgren cells was mediated through the 5-HT1A and 5-HT2B receptors, selective agonists of both receptors effectively increased the firing frequency of Dahlgren cells, and selective receptor antagonists could also effectively inhibit the increase in firing frequency caused by 5-HT. In addition, the mRNA levels of major signaling pathway-related genes, ion channels, and major secretion hormone genes were significantly upregulated in CNSS after treatment with 5-HT. These findings demonstrate that 5-HT acts as an excitatory neuromodulator on Dahlgren cells and enhances neuroendocrine activity in CNSS.
