Are we hallucinating or can psychedelic drugs modulate the immune system to control inflammation?
British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.Psychedelic drugs that activate 5‐HT2A receptors have been long used for cultural, medicinal and recreational purposes. Interest in psychedelics for treating psychiatric disorders has resurged recently and is well documented; less well recognised are their anti‐inflammatory properties. Growing evidence now demonstrates that psychedelics modulate immune

Dopamine release induced by atypical antipsychotics in prefrontal cortex requires 5-HT1A receptors but not 5-HT2A receptors [PDF]
, 2013 Atypical antipsychotic drugs (APDs) increase dopamine (DA) release in prefrontal cortex (PFC), an effect probably mediated by the direct or indirect activation of the 5-HT1A receptor (5-HT1AR).

Neuropsychopharmacology Reports, Volume 46, Issue 2, June 2026.This study demonstrates a significant association between the 5‐HTTLPR polymorphism and schizophrenia risk. The short allele was significantly overrepresented in patients (OR = 1.39, p = 0.007), suggesting a potential contribution to schizophrenia risk.
