Dual role of endogenous serotonin in 2,4,6-trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid-induced colitis
Background and Aims: Changes in gut serotonin content have been described in Inflammatory Bowel Disease and in different experimental models of colitis: the critical role of this monoamine in the pathogenesis of chronic gastrointestinal inflammation is ...

The effect of 5-HT2A receptor stimulation on morphine withdrawal symptoms in mice [PDF]
Background and Aim: Serotonergic system has a role in morphine dependence and withdrawal symptoms via its receptors. On the other hand, the effect of 5-HT2A receptor on withdrawal symptoms has not been evaluated completely.

Are we hallucinating or can psychedelic drugs modulate the immune system to control inflammation?
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

Theorized mechanism of dopamine homeostasis restoration in the nucleus accumbens core induced by a psychedelic intervention. Abstract Psychedelics have garnered great attention in recent years as treatments for major depressive disorder (MDD) and treatment‐resistant depression because of their ability to alter consciousness and afflicted cognitive ...

Personalised Perception: The Effect of Personality on the Sensory Effects of Psychedelics
ABSTRACT Introduction Psychedelics induce a wide range of sensory distortions and hallucinations (henceforth ‘distortions’). Yet, little is known about factors that influence the occurrence of certain distortions. Extra‐pharmacological variables including personality traits have been found to correlate with the occurrence of different subjective ...

To determine what drives the responses of the visual claustrum zone, we extracted physical features and collected participants' subjective ratings of naturalistic videos. Claustrum activity was associated with motion, but also with subjective ratings of arousal, valence, and interest, implying the human claustrum's role beyond sensory processing ...

ABSTRACT Cortical thickness (CT) differences between autistic individuals (AI) and neurotypical controls have been consistently reported, yet the neurochemical mechanisms underlying these differences remain insufficiently understood. Neurotransmitter receptor systems exhibit distinct spatial distributions across the cortex and influence synaptic ...

IntroductionStudies suggest that serotonin (5-HT) plays an important role in alcohol use disorder (AUD). While several receptor subtypes modulate the role of 5-HT in AUD, evidence suggests that 5-HT2A and 5-HT2C receptors may be directly involved in ...

This study reveals that 5‐hydroxytryptamine (5‐HT) synapses in the spinal cord and 5‐HT neurons in the brainstem of the SOD1‐G93A amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) mouse model are significantly altered, showing a decrease in pre‐symptomatic stages but a marked increase as the disease progresses.
