Abstract
Ergot alkaloids can interact with several serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine [5-HT]) receptors provoking many physiological responses. However, it is unknown whether ergot alkaloid consumption influences 5-HT or its metabolites. Thus, two experiments were performed to evaluate the effect of ergot alkaloid feeding on 5-HT metabolism. In exp. 1, 12 Holstein steers (260 ± 3 kg body weight [BW]) were used in a completely randomized design. The treatments were the dietary concentration of ergovaline: 0, 0.862, and 1.282 mg/kg of diet. The steers were fed ad libitum, kept in light and temperature cycles mimicking the summer, and had blood sampled before and 15 d after receiving the treatments. The consumption of ergot alkaloids provoked a linear decrease (P = 0.004) in serum 5-HT. However, serum 5-hydroxytryptophan and 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid did not change (P > 0.05) between treatments. In exp. 2, four ruminally cannulated Holstein steers (318 ± 3 kg BW) were used in a 4 × 4 Latin square design to examine the difference between seed sources on 5-HT metabolism. Treatments were: control-tall fescue seeds free of ergovaline, KY 32 seeds (L42-16-2K32); 5Way-endophyte-infected seeds, 5 way (L152-11-1739); KY31-endophyte-infected seeds, KY 31 (M164-16-SOS); and Millennium-endophyte-infected seeds, 3rd Millennium (L108-11-76). The endophyte-infected seed treatments were all adjusted to provide an ergovaline dosage of 15 μg/kg BW. The basal diet provided 1.5-fold the net energy requirement for maintenance. The seed treatments were dosed directly into the rumen before feeding. The experiment lasted 84 d and was divided into four periods. In each period, the steers received seeds for 7 d followed by a 14-d washout. Blood samples were collected on day 0 (baseline) and day 7 for evaluating the treatment response in each period. A 24 h urine collection was performed on day 7. Similar to exp. 1, serum 5-HT decreased (P = 0.008) with the consumption of all endophyte-infected seed treatments. However, there was no difference (P > 0.05) between the infected seeds. The urinary excretion of 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid in the urine was not affected (P > 0.05) by the presence of ergot alkaloids. In conclusion, the consumption of ergot alkaloids decreases serum 5-HT with no difference between the source of endophyte-infected seeds in the bovine.

Abstract
Pharmacological studies have yielded valuable insights into the role of the serotonin 2A (5-HT2A) receptor in major depressive disorder (MDD) and antidepressant drugs (ADs) response. However, it is still unknown whether genetic variants in the HTR2A gene affect the therapeutic outcome of ADs and the mechanism underlying the regulation of such response remains poorly described. In this context, a translational human-mouse study offers a unique opportunity to address the possibility that variations in the HTR2A gene may represent a relevant marker to predict the efficacy of ADs. In a first part of this study, we investigated in depressed patients the effect of three HTR2A single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), selected for their potential functional consequences on 5-HT2A receptor (rs6313, rs6314 and rs7333412), on response and remission rates after 3 months of antidepressant treatments. We also explored the consequences of the constitutive genetic inactivation of the 5-HT2A receptor (i.e. in 5-HT2A(-/-) mice) on the activity of acute and prolonged administration of SSRIs. Our clinical data indicate that GG patients for the rs7333412 SNP were less prone to respond to ADs than AA/AG patients. In the preclinical study, we demonstrated that the 5-HT2A receptor exerts an inhibitory influence on the neuronal activity of the serotonergic system after acute administration of SSRIs. However, while the chronic administration of the SSRIs escitalopram or fluoxetine elicited a progressive increased in the firing rate of 5-HT neurons in 5-HT2A(+/+) mice, it failed to do so in 5-HT2A(-/-) mutants. These electrophysiological impairments were associated with a decreased ability of the chronic administration of fluoxetine to stimulate hippocampal plasticity and to produce antidepressant-like activities. Genetic loss of the 5-HT2A receptor compromised the activity of chronic treatment with SSRIs, making this receptor a putative marker to predict ADs response.

Abstract
RATIONALE The zebrafish has become an increasingly popular animal model for investigating ethanol's actions in the brain and its effects on behavior. Acute exposure to ethanol in zebrafish has been shown to induce a dose-dependent increase of locomotor activity, to reduce fear- and anxiety-related behavioral responses, and to increase the levels of dopamine and its metabolite 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid (DOPAC). OBJECTIVES The objective of the present study was to investigate the role of dopamine D1 receptors (D1-R) in ethanol-induced locomotor activity in zebrafish. METHODS Zebrafish were pre-treated with SCH-23390 (0 or 1 mg/L bath concentration), a D1-R antagonist, and subsequently exposed to ethanol (0, 0.25, 0.5, 1.0 % v/v). To explore potential underlying mechanisms, we quantified levels of dopamine, DOPAC, serotonin, and 5-HIAA from whole-brain tissue using high-precision liquid chromatography. RESULTS We found pre-treatment with the D1-R antagonist to attenuate locomotor activity independent of ethanol concentration. Furthermore, unlike ethanol, D1-R antagonism did not alter behavioral responses associated with fear and anxiety. Pre-treatment with SCH-23390 decreased levels of dopamine and DOPAC, but this effect was also independent of ethanol concentration. The D1-R antagonist also reduced serotonin and 5-hydroxyindole acetic acid (5-HIAA) levels. CONCLUSION These results suggest a multifaceted and at least partially independent role of dopamine D1 receptors in ethanol-induced locomotor activity and anxiety-related responses as well as in the functioning of the dopaminergic and serotoninergic neurotransmitter systems in zebrafish.
