Cardiac Roles of Serotonin (5-HT) and 5-HT-Receptors in Health and Disease
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2023 Serotonin acts solely via 5-HT4-receptors to control human cardiac contractile function. The effects of serotonin via 5-HT4-receptors lead to positive inotropic and chronotropic effects, as well as arrhythmias, in the human heart.

5-HT and the Immune System [PDF]
Current Opinion in Pharmacology, 2011 The classical neurotransmitter, serotonin (5-HT), plays an important role outside of the central nervous system in immune signaling. Here I review recent studies describing 5-HT uptake in dendritic cells and B lymphocytes, 5-HT synthesis in T lymphocytes,

The serotonergic system dysfunction in diabetes mellitus
Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2022 Most peripheral serotonin (5-HT) is synthesized in enterochromaffin cells, and most circulating 5-HT is stored in platelets. As a monoamine, 5-HT has several functions in various non-neuronal and neuronal systems.

Can Serotonin 7 Receptors Be a Treatment Target for Noncentral Diseases?
Eurasian Journal of Medicine, 2023 The neurotransmitter serotonin (5-HT) is involved in several key processes in the central nervous system. But the great majority of serotonin is produced by intestinal enterochromafn cells of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract and circulating blood ...

Serotonin: A Potent Immune Cell Modulator in Autoimmune Diseases
Frontiers in Immunology, 2020 Serotonin, also known as 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) is a signaling mediator that regulates emotion, behavior, and cognition. Previous studies have focused more on the roles of 5-HT in the central nervous system (CNS).
