Constitutively active GPCR have revealed novel properties of drugs that exhibit classical competitive antagonism at the native forms of GPCR, These drugs reverse basal levels of constitutive activity, indicating that they have inverse agonist activity. We were interested in determining if competitive antagonists of the native 5-HT2A receptor, in particular, antipsychotic drugs, exhibit inverse agonist activity at the constitutively active 5-HT2A receptor. All of the drugs tested reduced basal IP production of constitutively active 5-HT2A receptors, indicating that they all exhibited inverse agonist activity. Risperidone and ketanserin produced the greatest inhibition of basal IP production resulting in a reduction of basal activity in the C322K mutant receptor of 82% and 80%. respectively. Antipsychotic drugs display inverse agonist activity, indicating that stabilization of the inactive conformation of the 5-HT2A receptor map be a key component of their mechanism of action.
