Hippocampal 5-HT1A receptor and spatial learning and memory [PDF]
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 ...

Structural Pharmacology of Bufotenine Derivatives in Activating the 5-HT1A Receptor for Therapeutic Potential in Depression and Anxiety [PDF]
The 5-HT1A receptor is a critical target in the treatment of depression and anxiety. Bufotenine derivatives, such as 5-methoxy-N,N-dimethyltryptamine (5-MeO-DMT), 5-hydroxy-N,N-dimethyltryptamine (5-OH-DMT), and 5-hydroxy-N,N,N-dimethyltryptamine—derived

Nicotine and fluoxetine alter adolescent dopamine-mediated behaviors via 5-HT1A receptor activation [PDF]
IntroductionAbuse or misuse of tobacco, e-cigarettes, or antidepressants may have serious clinical consequences during adolescence, a sensitive period during brain development when the distinct neurobiology of adolescent serotonin (5-HT) and dopamine (DA)

Augmentation Therapy With Serotonin 5‐HT1A Receptor Partial Agonists on Cognitive Function in Depressive Disorders: A Systematic Review of Randomized Controlled Studies [PDF]
Objective The use of serotonin 5‐HT1A receptor partial agonists (5‐HT1A‐PAs) as an add‐on therapy has been associated with the enhancement of attention/processing speed in patients with schizophrenia. Also, 5‐HT1A receptors have been shown to play a role

Astrocytic 5-HT1A receptor mediates age-dependent hippocampal LTD and fear memory extinction in male mice [PDF]
NMDA receptor-dependent long-term depression (LTD) in the hippocampus is a well-known form of synaptic plasticity that has been linked to different cognitive functions. Although the underlying mechanisms remain unclear, this form of LTD cannot be induced

The Effects of Serotonin Receptor Antagonists on Contraction and Relaxation Responses Induced by Electrical Stimulation in the Rat Small Intestine [PDF]
Background: The main source of 5-HT in body is in enterchromafin cells of intestine, different studies mentioned different roles for endogenous 5-HT and receptors involved and it is not clearified the mechanism of action of endogenous 5-HT. Objectives:

Heterodimerization of serotonin receptors 5-HT1A and 5-HT7 differentially regulates receptor signalling and trafficking [PDF]
Serotonin receptors 5-HT1A and 5-HT7 are highly coexpressed in brain regions implicated in depression. However, their functional interaction has not been established.

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
