Expression of mRNA for 5-HT2 Receptors and Proteins Related to Inactivation of 5-HT in Mouse Osteoblasts

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2009
We analyzed the expression of 5-HT2 receptors and proteins related to inactivation of 5-HT in primary cultures of mouse osteoblasts. The mRNA for the 5-HT2A receptor was detectable in anaplastic osteoblasts as well as in differentiated and matured ...

Role of serotonergic 5-HT2A receptors in the psychotomimetic actions of phencyclidine [PDF]

open access: yesThe International Journal of Neuropsychopharmacology, 2000
The psychotomimetic phencyclidine (PCP) alters various behavioural responses involving the serotonergic system including potentiating the discriminative stimulus effects of the phenethylamine hallucinogen, 2,5-dimethoxy-4-methylamphetamine (DOM).

The toadfish serotonin 2A (5-HT2A) receptor: molecular characterization and its potential role in urea excretion

open access: yes, 2012
Based on early pharmacological work, the serotonin 2A (5-HT2A) receptor subtype is believed to be involved in the regulation of toadfish pulsatile urea excretion.

Psilocybin as a novel treatment for chronic pain

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 183, Issue 14, Page 3992-4005, July 2026.
Abstract Psychedelic drugs are under active consideration for clinical use and have generated significant interest for their potential as anti‐nociceptive treatments for chronic pain, and for addressing conditions like depression, frequently co‐morbid with pain.

Neuropsychopharmacology of hallucinogenic and non‐hallucinogenic 5‐HT2A receptor agonists

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 183, Issue 14, Page 3935-3949, July 2026.
Psychedelic drugs such as LSD and psilocin were once relegated to the fringes of medical research because of their association with counterculture movements and a perceived concern about harm through recreational use, and their consequent legal prohibition in the early 1970s.

Mechanism Exploration of Arylpiperazine Derivatives Targeting the 5-HT2A Receptor by In Silico Methods

open access: yesMolecules, 2017
As a G-protein coupled receptor, the 5-hydroxytryptamine 2A (5-HT2A) receptor is known for its critical role in the cognitive, behavioural and physiological functions, and thus is a primary molecular target to treat psychiatric diseases, including ...

Psychedelics, entactogens and psychoplastogens for depression and related disorders

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 183, Issue 14, Page 3897-3919, July 2026.
Currently, the most actively investigated rapidly acting antidepressants, anxiolytics and/or anti PTSD agents, include psychedelics e.g. psilocybin, LSD, N,N‐dimethyltryptamine, ayahuasca; non‐hallucinogenic entactogens, e.g. MDMA; psychoplastogens which rapidly promote neuroplasticity, e.g.

Changes in global and thalamic brain connectivity in LSD-induced altered states of consciousness are attributable to the 5-HT2A receptor

open access: yeseLife, 2018
Background: Lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD) has agonist activity at various serotonin (5-HT) and dopamine receptors. Despite the therapeutic and scientific interest in LSD, specific receptor contributions to its neurobiological effects remain unknown ...

5-HT2A receptor-dependent phosphorylation of mGlu2 receptor at Serine 843 promotes mGlu2 receptor-operated Gi/o signaling

open access: yes, 2018
The serotonin 5-HT2A and glutamate mGlu2 receptors continue to attract particular attention, given their implication in psychosis associated with schizophrenia and the mechanism of action of atypical antipsychotics and a new class of antipsychotics ...

Evidence that 5‐HT2A receptor signalling efficacy and not biased agonism differentiates serotonergic psychedelic from non‐psychedelic drugs

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 183, Issue 14, Page 4058-4071, July 2026.
Background and Purpose Serotonergic psychedelic drugs are under investigation as therapies for various psychiatric disorders, including major depression. Although serotonergic psychedelic drugs are 5‐HT2A receptor agonists, some such agonists are not psychedelic, potentially due to differences in 5‐HT2A receptor ligand bias or signalling efficacy. Here,
