    Notes: Abstract  It is well documented that certain substituted benzamides, such as cisapride, and benzimidazolones, such as BIMU 8, enhance gastric emptying in rats. As these compounds possess 5-HT3 antagonistic and 5-HT4 agonistic properties, the precise mechanisms (5-HT3 or 5-HT4) underlying their gastroprokinetic effects is still unclear. In the present study, we used SC 49518 (a benzamide and selective 5-HT4 receptor agonist) and two selective 5-HT4 receptor antagonists (RS 23597-190 and SB 204070) to elucidate the role of 5-HT4 receptors in gastroprokinesis. SC 49518 (1–316 μg/kg; ip) produced significant and dose-dependent stimulation of gastric emptying in rats (ED50=2.3 μg/kg; ip). SC 49518 also produced dose-dependent inhibition of bradycardia induced by 2-methyl 5-HT (von Bezold-Jarisch reflex) but with a 156 fold lower potency (ID50=0.36 mg/kg; ip). The gastroprokinetic effects of SC 49518 (3–316 μg/kg; ip) were significantly antagonized by the selective 5-HT4 receptor antagonist RS 23597-190 (0.1 mg/kg/min; iv). SB 204070 (0.003–1 mg/kg; ip), another selective 5-HT4 receptor antagonist, produced dose-dependent inhibition of the gastroprokinetic effects of SC 49518 (10 μg/kg; ip), the inhibition attaining statistical significance at the dose of 0.1 mg/kg; ip. RS 23597-190 had no effects on gastric emptying per se whereas SB 204070 significantly increased gastric emptying by itself at 1 mg/kg; ip but not at 0.1 mg/kg; ip. These findings show, for the first time, that SC 49518, a selective 5-HT4 receptor agonist, produces potent stimulation of gastric emptying in rats via a mechanism involving activation of 5-HT4 receptors. It is suggested that a similar mechanism may account for the gastro-prokinetic effects of other non-selective benzamides and benzimidazolones.

    Notes: Summary Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) is a hormone derived from the preproglucagon molecule that is secreted by intestinal L cells and stimulates insulin secretion from betacells. The GLP-1 receptor is a candidate gene for diabetes mellitus, as mutations may induce the impaired insulin response that is a characteristic feature of NIDDM. To study the relationship between the GLP-1 receptor gene and NIDDM, linkage of a microsatellite polymorphism flanking the GLP-1 receptor gene with diabetes was investigated in three Caucasian families with MODY and in the nuclear families of 12 NIDDM probands. A cumulative LOD score −8.50 excludes linkage in these MODY pedigrees. A LOD score of −1.24 in the NIDDM nuclear pedigrees makes linkage improbable. Mutations in or near the GLP-1 receptor gene are unlikely to be the major cause of the inherited predisposition to NIDDM in Caucasian pedigrees, but we cannot exclude a role for this locus in a polygenic model or a major role in some pedigrees.

    Notes: Summary Maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY) is a form of non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus characterised by an early age of onset and an autosomal dominant mode of inheritance. Only a proportion of cases are due to mutations in the glucokinase gene. We have studied five Caucasian MODY families, including the first MODY family to be described, with five candidate genes implicated in regulation of insulin secretion. The affected subjects showed more marked hyperglycaemia than that found in subjects with glucokinase mutations. We assessed polymorphic markers close to the genes for glucokinase, hexokinase II, adenosine deaminase, pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide receptor, and glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor. Linkage analysis with diabetes gave cumulative log of the odds (LOD) scores of less than -3, implying that mutations in these genes are unlikely to provide a major genetic contribution to this form of MODY.
