Molecular biology of 5-HT receptors

Behavioural Brain Research, 2008
Serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine; 5-HT) is a monoamine neurotransmitter whose effects are mediated by at least 13 distinct G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) of the type A family which includes the monoamine receptors and a combination of ligand-gated ion channels (5-HT3) of the Cys loop family which constitutes heteropentamers.

Quinpirole — A 5-HT receptor antagonist?

Neuroscience Letters, 1991
The rate of brain monoamine synthesis was estimated in the rat by measuring the accumulation of dihydroxyphenylalanine (DOPA) and 5-hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP) following inhibition of cerebral aromatic amino acid decarboxylase by NSD-1015 (475 mumol/kg, i.p., 30 min before decapitation).

Molecular biology of 5-HT receptors

Neuropharmacology, 1994
The receptors through which serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT) produces its effects have been the subject of intense investigation, initially using both in vivo and in vitro pharmacological methods, and later radioligand binding. These approaches allowed a preliminary classification of 5-HT receptors, but the identification on subtypes was limited ...

Neuronal 5-HT receptors in the periphery

Neuropharmacology, 1984
5-Hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) induces responses in neurones from all branches of the mammalian peripheral nervous system. Responses may be excitatory or inhibitory and are mediated through at least four distinct receptor sites. One receptor mediates excitation in motoneurones and preganglionic sympathetic neurones and can be designated a D (or possibly 5 ...

Molecular Neuroanatomy of 5-HT Receptors

1991
Serotoninergic terminals are found throughout the brain, suggesting an involvement of 5-HT in many brain functions. The effects of 5-HT on a given neuron are dependent on the different types of receptors expressed by this neuron, their location on the neuron and the signal transduction mechanism used. In order to provide information on the localization

5-HT antagonists and blockade of neuronal (5-HT) receptors on ganglion cells

General Pharmacology: The Vascular System, 1984
Potential changes in superior cervical ganglion cells evoked by 5-HT or the nicotinic agonist, dimethyl-phenyl piperazinium (DMPP), were recorded using the sucrose-gap method and a number of putative 5-HT antagonists tested for potency and selectivity. Selective blockade of 5-HT responses was produced by 5-HT itself and, in increasing order of potency,
