The neurochemical and autonomic pharmacological profile of l,2,3,4,10,14b-hexahydro-2-methyl-pyrazino[2,1-a]pyrido[2,3-c][2] benzazepine (±)Org 3770) and the related antidepressant drug, mianserin, have been compared. The uptake of [3H] noradrenaline ([3H]NA)in vitrowas weakly affected by (±)Org 3770 (pKi= 5.6) in contrast to mianserin (pKi= 7.4). Both (±)Org 3770 and mianserin facilitated the release of [3H]NA in slices of cortex. The effects of NA mediated byα2-adrenoceptors on the release of both [3H]NA or [3H]serotonin ([3H]5-HT) were antagonized by (+)Org 3770 with pKivalues of 8.4 and 8.1, respectively. However, (−)Org 3770 only antagonized the effect of NA on the release of [3H]5-HT (pA2= 7.7). The binding of [2H]rauwolscine toα2-adrenoceptors was inhibited by (±)Org 3770 and mianserin with identical affinity (pKi= 7.0), whereas the binding of [3H]prazosine toα1-adrenoceptors was less potently affected by (±)Org 3770 (pKi= 6.4) than by mianserin (pKi= 7.1). A similar difference was found for α1- and α2-adrenoceptors in vas deferens of the rat. The binding of [3H]mianserin to 5-HT2receptors was less potently blocked by (±)Org 3770 (pKi= 8.1) than by mianserin (pKi= 9.4) while the binding of [3H]mepyramine to histamine-1 receptors was more potently affected by (±)Org 3770 (pKi= 9.3) than by mianserin (pKi= 8.75). The binding of [3H]quinuclidinylbenzilate to muscarinic cholinergic receptors was blocked equally by (±)Org 3770 (pKi= 6.1) and mianserin (pki= 6.3). Similar data on tryptamine-d, histamine-1 and muscarinic cholinergic receptors in isolated organs were obtained. A prominent role for the blockade ofα2-adrenoceptors in the therapeutic effects of mianserin and (±)Org 3770 in depression is suggested, probably excluding a role of inhibition of the uptake of NA.
