The 5-HT6 receptor, also known as the 5-hydroxytryptamine (serotonin) receptor 6 (HTR6), is a human gene.[1][2] The 5-HT6 receptor is primarily expressed in the brain and is involved in glutamatergic and cholinergic neuronal activity.[3] It is a potential target for drugs treating cognitive diseases, schizophrenia, anxiety and obesity.[4]

Ligands

Full agonists

Agonists for the 5-HT6 receptor include:

  • 2-ethyl-5-methoxy-N,N-dimethyltryptamine (EMDT)[5]
  • arylsulfonyl-tryptamines[6]
  • arylsulfonyl-heterocycles.[7]
  • EMD-386,088 (5-Chloro-2-methyl-3-(1,2,3,6-tetrahydro-4-pyridinyl)-1H -indole) - potent and selective 5HT6 agonist (EC50 1nM)[8]
  • WAY-181,187
  • WAY-208,466

Antagonists

  • SB-258,585 (4-Iodo-N-[4-methoxy-3-(4-methyl-1-piperazinyl)phenyl]benzenesulfonamide)
  • SB-399,885

Genetics

The receptor is coded by the HTR6 gene. As the protein is a neuroreceptor it is possible that genetic variations in the gene would have an effect on brain, and research studies have investigated whether polymorphisms is associated with brain-related variables, such as neuropsychiatric disorders. For example, in 2004 one Chinese study reported an association between the C267T (rs1805054) polymorphism and Alzheimer's disease.[9] Others have studied the polymorphism in relation to Parkinson's disease.[10]
