Novel approaches for drug development against chronic primary pain: A systematic review

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Chronic primary pain (CPP) persisting for more than 3 months, associated with significant emotional distress without any known underlying cause, is an unmet medical need. Traditional or adjuvant analgesics do not provide satisfactory pain relief for a great proportion of these patients.

Inhibitory Effect of Lomerizine, a Prophylactic Drug for Migraines, on Serotonin-Induced Contraction of the Basilar Artery

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2009
We examined the effects of lomerizine on serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT)– induced contraction of the basilar artery and compared them with those of nifedipine.

Japanese Cohort Study and Meta‐Analysis Demonstrate Significant Association Between Serotonin Transporter‐Linked Polymorphic Region and Schizophrenia

open access: yesNeuropsychopharmacology 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.

M3 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor facilitates the endocytosis of mu opioid receptor mediated by morphine independently of the formation of heteromeric complexes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Morphine inefficiency to induce the internalization of mu opioid (MOP) receptors observed in numerous experimental models constitutes a paradigm of G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR) functional selectivity.

Regulation of 5-HT2A receptor mRNA in P11 cells

open access: yesBehavioural Brain Research, 1995
P11 cells were used as an in vitro model system to explore effects of exposure to 5-HT on levels of mRNA encoding 5-HT2A receptors. Exposure of cells to the agonist 5-HT resulted in a doubling of receptor mRNA levels. mRNA levels returned to control levels within 8-16 h.

Decreased density of serotonin 5-HT2A receptors in rheumatoid arthritis [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of the Rheumatic Diseases, 2006
Animal studies have indicated that 5-HT2A receptors could play a role in arthritic diseases.To analyse the binding properties of 5-HT2A receptors in patients with rheumatoid arthritis.Using a radioactive binding assay, 43 patients with rheumatoid arthritis were compared with 49 sex and age matched controls for density and affinity (measured as Bmax and

Efficacy and safety of 2–4 mg brexpiprazole in the management of schizophrenia: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

open access: yesPsychiatry and Clinical Neurosciences Reports, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.
This graphical summary illustrates the efficacy and safety of brexpiprazole (2–4 mg) in patients with schizophrenia. The meta‐analysis demonstrates significant improvement in clinical outcomes, with reductions in Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) and Clinical Global Impression ‐ Severity scale (CGI‐S) scores, indicating better symptom ...

Serotonin 5-HT2A and 5-HT2C receptors differentially modulate the acquisition and expression of voluntary alcohol drinking in male mice

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience
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 ...
