SB-399885 is an antagonist of the serotonin (5-HT) receptor subtype 5-HT6 (Ki = 0.72 nM).1 It is greater than 200-fold selective for 5-HT6 receptors over a panel of receptors, ion channels, and enzymes at 10 µM. SB-399885 inhibits 5-HT-induced cAMP accumulation in HeLa cells expressing recombinant human 5-HT6 receptors (pA2 = 7.85). In vivo, SB-399885 increases the seizure threshold in a rat model of seizures induced by maximal electroshock (MES). It reduces escape latency in the Morris water maze in aged rats and reverses scopolamine-induced impairments in the novel object recognition task in adult rats when administered at a dose of 10 mg/kg. SB-399885 (10 mg/kg) decreases immobility time in the forced swim and tail suspension tests in mice.2 It also increases drinking in the Vogel punished drinking task, indicating anxiolytic-like activity, in rats.
