5-hydroxytryptamine modulates migration, cytokine and chemokine release and T-cell priming capacity of dendritic cells in vitro and in vivo. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2009
Beside its well described role in the central and peripheral nervous system 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT), commonly known as serotonin, is also a potent immuno-modulator.

Serotonin augments gut pacemaker activity via 5-HT3 receptors. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
Serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine: 5-HT) affects numerous functions in the gut, such as secretion, muscle contraction, and enteric nervous activity, and therefore to clarify details of 5-HT's actions leads to good therapeutic strategies for gut functional ...

Deletion of the Serotonin Receptor 7 Gene Changed the Development and Behavior of the Mosquito, Aedes aegypti

open access: yesInsects, 2022
Serotonin (5-HT) plays a vital role in many physiological processes in insects, regulating physiological activities such as growth and movement through multiple 5-HT receptors (5-HTRs), which were potential targets for some new insecticides. However, the

Serotonergic modulation of spatial working memory: predictions from a computational network model

open access: yesFrontiers in Integrative Neuroscience, 2013
Serotonin (5-HT) receptors of types 1A and 2A are massively expressed in prefrontal cortex (PFC) neurons, an area associated with cognitive function. Hence, 5-HT could be effective in modulating prefrontal-dependent cognitive functions, such as spatial ...

A Review of Serotonin in the Developing Lung and Neonatal Pulmonary Hypertension

open access: yesBiomedicines, 2023
Serotonin (5-HT) is a bioamine that has been implicated in the pathogenesis of pulmonary hypertension (PH). The lung serves as an important site of 5-HT synthesis, uptake, and metabolism with signaling primarily regulated by tryptophan hydroxylase (TPH),
