Receptor interaction profiles of novel N-2-methoxybenzyl (NBOMe) derivatives of 2,5-dimethoxy-substituted phenethylamines (2C drugs) [PDF]
N-2-methoxybenzyl-phenethylamines (NBOMe drugs) are newly used psychoactive substances with poorly defined pharmacological properties. The aim of the present study was to characterize the receptor binding profiles of a series of NBOMe drugs compared with

Receptor interaction profiles of novel psychoactive tryptamines compared with classic hallucinogens [PDF]
The present study investigated interactions between the novel psychoactive tryptamines DiPT, 4-OH-DiPT, 4-OH-MET, 5-MeO-AMT, and 5-MeO-MiPT at monoamine receptors and transporters compared with the classic hallucinogens lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD ...

Cortical 5‐HT2A receptor density predicts 5‐HT2A receptor mediated behavior in the rabbit
Serotonin 5‐HT 2 receptor agonists such as DOI [1(2, 5‐dimethoxy‐4‐iodophenyl)‐2‐aminopropane] injected systemically or directly into frontal cortex, elicit stereotyped head movements that are mediated by 5‐HT 2A receptors.

Predicted Structures and Dynamics for Agonists and Antagonists Bound to Serotonin 5-HT2B and 5-HT2C Receptors [PDF]
Subtype 2 serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT) receptors are major drug targets for schizophrenia, feeding disorders, perception, depression, migraines, hypertension, anxiety, hallucinogens, and gastrointestinal dysfunctions.' We report here ...

Subtype specific roles of serotonin receptors in the spine formation of cortical neurons in vitro [PDF]
Dendritic spines are postsynaptic structures which are formed from filopodia. We examined roles of serotonin (5-HT) receptors in the spine formation. Embryonic rat cortical neurons were cultured for 10 or 14 days and treated by 5-HT receptor agonists for

Monoamine receptor interaction profiles of 4-thio-substituted phenethylamines (2C-T drugs) [PDF]
4-Thio-substituted phenethylamines (2C-T drugs) are potent psychedelics with poorly defined pharmacological properties. Because of their psychedelic effects, 2C-T drugs are sometimes sold as new psychoactive substances (NPSs).
