Abstract

<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title> <jats:p>Of the alkaloids obtained from Uncaria sinensis Oliv., geissoschizine methyl ether, corynantheine and dihydrocorynantheine decreased specific [3H]5-HT binding to membrane preparations from rat brain and from in-vitro experiments on guinea-pig ileum, these alkaloids were found to be partial agonists for 5-HT receptors. Therefore, they might be useful in the treatment of diseases resulting from disorders of 5-HT metabolism.
