Treatment of rats with electroconvulsive shock once daily for 10–12 days increased the density ofα1-adrenoceptors labeled by [3H]prazosin in homogenates of frontal cerebral cortex. A single treatment did not affect [3H]prazosin binding. Repeated treatment with electroconvulsive shock did not appear to affectα1-adrenoceptor binding in the hippocampus or hypothalamus. Treatment of rats with reserpine also increased [3H]prazosin binding in the frontal cortex. In contrast to electroconvulsive shock, three weeks administration of tricyclic antidepressant drugs, monoamine oxidase inhibitors, or atypical antidepressant drugs did not significantly affect [3H]prazosin binding sites in the frontal cortex. The affinities of antidepressant drugs forα1-adrenoceptors ranged from about 50 nM for tricyclic and atypical antidepressants to about 100 μM for monoamine oxidase inhibitors. The high affinities of the tricyclic and atypical antidepressant drugs forα1-adrenoceptors could contribute to clinical differences between these classes of drugs and monoamine oxidase inhibitors. Furthermore, the electroconvulsive shock-induced increase inα1-adrenoceptors could contribute to differences in clinical effects between this treatment and antidepressant drugs.
