Parishin C, a major component of Gastrodia elata BLUME (GE), was purified from GE. Because GE modulates the serotonergic system and the 5-HT1A receptor is an important therapeutic target of schizophrenia, we examined whether parishin C affects ...

Drosophila insulin-producing cells are differentially modulated by serotonin and octopamine receptors and affect social behavior. [PDF]
A set of 14 insulin-producing cells (IPCs) in the Drosophila brain produces three insulin-like peptides (DILP2, 3 and 5). Activity in IPCs and release of DILPs is nutrient dependent and controlled by multiple factors such as fat body-derived proteins ...

Occupancy of Agonist Drugs at the 5-HT1A Receptor [PDF]
Drugs acting on the 5-HT1A receptor are used in the treatment of depression, generalized anxiety disorder, and schizophrenia. This study investigated 5-HT1A receptor occupancy by the 5-HT1A agonist drugs flesinoxan (a highly selective probe for the 5-HT1A receptor) and ziprasidone (a novel atypical antipsychotic drug). Using a within-subject design, 14

Hippocampal 5-HT1A receptor and spatial learning and memory
Spatial cognition is fundamental for survival in the topographically complex environments inhabited by humans and other animals. The hippocampus, which has a central role in spatial cognition, is characterized by high concentration of serotonin (5 ...

The 5-HT1A receptor in Major Depressive Disorder [PDF]
Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) is a highly prevalent psychiatric diagnosis that is associated with a high degree of morbidity and mortality. This debilitating disorder is currently one of the leading causes of disability nationwide and is predicted to be the leading cause of disease burden by the year 2030.
