Involvement of the liver-gut peripheral neural axis in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease pathologies via hepatic HTR2A

Disease Models & Mechanisms, 2022
Serotonin (5-HT) is one of the key bioamines of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Its mechanism of action in autonomic neural signal pathways remains unexplained; hence, we evaluated the involvement of 5-HT and related signaling pathways via ...

Serotonin regulates osteoblast proliferation and function in vitro

Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2014
The monoamine serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT), a well-known neurotransmitter, also has important functions outside the central nervous system. The objective of this study was to investigate the role of 5-HT in the proliferation, differentiation ...

5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) cellular sequestration during chronic exposure delays 5-HT₃ receptor resensitization due to Its subsequent release [PDF]

, 2014
The serotonergic synapse is dynamically regulated by serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT)) with elevated levels leading to the down-regulation of the serotonin transporter and a variety of 5-HT receptors, including the 5-HT type-3 (5-HT(3)) receptors ...

Neurochemical Changes in the Mouse Hippocampus Underlying the Antidepressant Effect of Genetic Deletion of P2X7 Receptors. [PDF]

, 2013
Recent investigations have revealed that the genetic deletion of P2X7 receptors (P2rx7) results in an antidepressant phenotype in mice. However, the link between the deficiency of P2rx7 and changes in behavior has not yet been explored.

Skin Vascular Resistance Decreases during 5-HT-Induced Hypotension in the Rat

Biomedicines, 2023
A recognized vasodilator, the infusion of 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT, serotonin) decreases blood pressure through the reduction of total peripheral resistance in the rat. It is not clear which vascular beds/tissues are responsible for this fall.

G protein-coupled receptor kinase-2 (GRK-2) regulates serotonin metabolism through the monoamine oxidase AMX-2 in Caenorhabditis elegans. [PDF]

, 2017
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) regulate many animal behaviors. GPCR signaling is mediated by agonist-promoted interactions of GPCRs with heterotrimeric G proteins, GPCR kinases (GRKs), and arrestins.

Constitutively active 5-HT receptors: An explanation of how 5-HT antagonists inhibit gut motility in species where 5-HT is not a enteric neurotransmitter ?

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2015
Antagonists of 5-Hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) receptors are well known to inhibit gastrointestinal (GI)-motility and transit in a variety of mammals, including humans.

Oral morphine induces spinal 5‐hydroxytryptamine (5‐HT) release using an opioid receptor‐independent mechanism

Pharmacology Research & Perspectives, 2023
Morphine induces spinal 5‐hydroxytryptamine (5‐HT) release, but the role and mechanism of the spinal 5‐HT release induced by morphine are not well understood.

Ritanserin as an adjunct to lithium and haloperidol for the treatment of medication-naive patients with acute mania: a double blind and placebo controlled trial

BMC Psychiatry, 2003
Background Bipolar disorder is a lifelong episodic condition characterized by mood swings between mania and depression. Several lines of evidence suggest that serotonin is likely to play a pivotal role in the pathophysiology of bipolar disorder ...
