pubmed:abstractText
A series of potent, selective 5HT2B receptor antagonists has been identified based upon yohimbine, with SAR studies resulting in a 1000-fold increase in 5HT2B receptor affinity relative to the starting structure (-log KBS > 10.0 have been obtained). These high-affinity tetrahydro-beta-carboline antagonists are able to discriminate among the 5HT2 family of serotonin receptors, with members of the series showing selectivities of more than 100-fold versus both the 5HT2A and 5HT2C receptors based upon radioligand binding and functional assays. As the first compounds reported with such selectivity and enhanced receptor affinity, these tetrahydro-beta-carboline antagonists are useful tools for elucidating the role of serotonin acting at the 5HT2B receptor in normal and disease physiology.
