Possible Involvement of Endogenous 5-HT in Aggravation of Cerulein-Induced Acute Pancreatitis in Mice

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2007
The aim of the present study was to elucidate the pathogenic role of endogenous 5-HT in pancreatitis. Injections of cerulein at hourly intervals caused edematous pancreatitis in mice characterized by hyperenzymemia and histological alterations. While the

Influence of mirtazapine on salivary cortisol in depressed patients [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Unlike other antidepressants, mirtazapine does not inhibit the reuptake of norepinephrine or serotonin but acts as an antagonist at presynaptic alpha(2)-receptors, at postsynaptic 5-HT2 and 5-HT3 receptors, and at histaminergic H1 receptors. Furthermore,

Pharmacologic MRI Brain Imaging Studies of Serotonin 5‐HT1 Receptor Agonists in Awake Mice

open access: yesPharmacology Research &Perspectives, Volume 14, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Serotonin (5‐hydroxytryptamine, 5‐HT) type‐1 G protein‐coupled receptors are expressed throughout the central nervous system. 5‐HT1AR activation is the putative mechanism of approved drugs for generalized anxiety disorder and major depressive disorder and is being studied in the treatment of autism and neurological disorders.

Pharmacology of novel psychoactive substances [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
This PhD work consists of an in vitro and in vivo part. In the in vivo part, we investigated the role of dopamine in the acute clinical effects of 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA, “ecstasy”) in healthy human subjects.

Cannabinoids and drug–drug pharmacokinetic interactions: Deciphering the risks

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, Volume 92, Issue 5, Page 1287-1308, May 2026.
The relationship between cannabinoids and mental health has become a major focus of scientific inquiry and public discourse. Cannabinoids are diverse chemical compounds from the Cannabis species that have been explored for their therapeutic applications in treating chronic pain, psychiatric and neurological conditions, such as depression, schizophrenia,

Modulation of 8-OH-DPAT-Induced Hypothermia by Imipramine in Rats

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2003
: The effects of imipramine on 8-hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino) tetralin (8-OH-DPAT), the 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT)1A-receptor full agonist, -induced hypothermia was examined in rats.

Citalopram plus low-dose pipamperone versus citalopram plus placebo in patients with major depressive disorder: an 8-week, double-blind, randomized study on magnitude and timing of clinical response [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Background: Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors take several weeks to achieve their full antidepressant effects. Post-synaptic 5-HT<sub>2A</sub> receptor activation is thought to be involved in this delayed therapeutic effect ...

Drug‐Induced Raynaud's Phenomenon and Underlying Mechanism: A Disproportionality Analysis From the World Health Organization Pharmacovigilance Database

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, Volume 78, Issue 4, Page 985-992, April 2026.
Objectives The aim of this study is to generate hypotheses about unknown drugs associated with the onset or worsening of Raynaud's phenomenon (RP) and to explore their potential pathophysiologic mechanisms through a mixed disproportionality/clustering analysis from the World Health Organization (WHO) pharmacovigilance database.

5-HT2A Serotonin Receptor Density in Adult Male Rats’ Hippocampus after Morphine-based Conditioned Place Preference

open access: yesBasic and Clinical Neuroscience, 2016
Introduction: A close interaction exists between the brain opioid and serotonin (5-HT) neurotransmitter systems. Brain neurotransmitter 5-HT plays an important role in the regulation of reward-related processing.
