SB 399885 hydrochloride is a novel, potent, brain penetrant, and orally bioactive 5-HT6 receptor antagonist. It exhibits selectivity for SR-6 over other serotonin receptors by more than 200 times (pKi values for human recombinant, native rat, and native human SR-6 receptors, respectively, are 9.11, 8.81, and 9.02). Blockade of postsynaptic 5-HT₆ receptors with systemic administration of SB-399885 and RO-4368554 increases W and reduces SWS and REMS during the light phase of the sleep-wake cycle. Moreover, SB-399885 suppresses REMS during the dark phase. Furthermore, it was established that giving the rat the 5-HT(2A) receptor antagonist EMD 281014 increases SWS in both light-dark cycle phases.

Biological Activity
| Targets | 5-HT6 Receptor |
| ln Vivo | SB-399885 hydrochloride 10 mg/kg, when compared to the control vehicle, significantly increases wakefulness (W) (F(3,15)=3.32, P<0.05), while REM sleep, slow wave sleep, and the number of REM periods decrease (F(3,15)=4.0, P<0.01; F(3,15)=3.14, P<0.05, and F(3,15)=2.62, P<0.05, respectively). According to an analysis of sleep variables in 2-hour blocks, during the first 2-hour period, SB-399885 hydrochloride 10 mg/kg increases W (F(3,15)=5.48, P<0.01) and decreases SWS (F(3,15)=5.42, P<0.01) and REMS (F(3,15)= 4.05, P<0.01). Light sleep is enhanced by SB-399885 hydrochloride at doses of 5 and 10 mg/kg during the first (F(3,15)=3.46, P<0.01 and F(3,15)= 3.65, P<0.01, respectively) and second (F(3,15)=3.23, P<0.05 and F(3,15)=3.08, P<0.05) 2-hour recording periods. SB-399885 hydrochloride 10 mg/kg significantly increases REMS latency (F(3,15)=3.60, P<0.01) and reduces the number of REM periods during the first 2-h of recording (F(3,15)=3.88, P<0.01)[1]. |
| Animal Protocol | At the time of surgery, twelve male Wistar rats weighing between 350 and 400 g are utilized. For four weeks, beginning two hours after the start of the dark period, animals acclimated to a 12-hour light/12-hour dark cycle are given intraperitoneally SB-399885 hydrochloride 2.5, 5 and 10 mg/kg or a vehicle (1% aqueous solution of Tween 80) (n = 6). All twelve treatments are given to each animal. 15 minutes later, recordings start, and they last for 6 hours. Give the control solution and hydrochloride of SB-399885 no less than three days apart[1]. |
