Possible Interaction: Serotonin and Proanthocyanidin

Research Papers that Mention the Interaction

Further studies showed that … of 20 µg/ml proanthocyanidin caused not only a rightward shift of the dose-response curve for 5-HT (EC(50) shift from 2.7±0.4 to 6.2±0.5 µM), but also a decreased E(max) (inhibition by 37.5±1.3%).
High concentrations (≧30 µg/ml) of proanthocyanidin caused a concentration-dependent inhibition of the activation and desensitization of currents induced by 30 µM 5-HT.
Proanthocyanidin also produced a concentration-dependent inhibition of currents induced by 30 µM 5-HT , near-maximal concentration (IC(50)=22.1±0.4 µg/ml, Hill coefficient=2.4±0.1).
proanthocyanidin (… 5-HT (near EC(50)) produced a slight inhibition of 5-HT-induced inward peak current (I(5-HT)) in NCB-20 cells, but pretreatment …-HT) in an irreversible, concentration- and time-dependent manner (IC(50)=6.5±0.4 µg/ml, Hill coefficient=2.5±0.1).

In addition, the neurochemical and neuropharmacological assays showed that proanthocyanidin produced a marked increase of 5-HT levels at 25 and 50mg/kg in three brain regions, the frontal cortex, hippocampus and hypothalamus.
