The spinal cord distribution of a recently identified, high affinity 3H-5-HT binding site, the 5-HT1S receptor was studied employing quantitative autoradiography with microdensitometry. The laminar distribution and density of other high affinity 3H-5-HT binding sites present in rat spinal cord, 5-HT1A, 5-HT1B and 5-HT1C, was also determined. The greatest density of 5-HT1S receptors was found in the superficial dorsal horn laminae, the autonomic nuclei around the central canal and the ventral motor nuclei. Smaller, variable densities of 5-HT1S receptors were observed in other spinal cord regions. A similar spatial pattern of receptor density was observed for 5-HT1A, 5-HT1B and 5-HT1C receptors. The distribution of 5-HT1S receptors suggests functional modulation of somatosensory input to spinal cord as well as control of visceral and somatomotor activity.
