Functional consequences of a rare human serotonergic 5-HT1A receptor variant [PDF]
Serotonin (5-HT) plays a central role in various brain functions via the activation of a family of receptors, most of them G protein coupled receptors (GPCRs).

5-HT1A and 5-HT2B receptor interaction and co-clustering regulate serotonergic neuron excitability
Summary: Many psychiatric diseases have been associated with serotonin (5-HT) neuron dysfunction. The firing of 5-HT neurons is known to be under 5-HT1A receptor-mediated autoinhibition, but functional consequences of coexpressed receptors are unknown ...
