Serotonin engages divergent 5‐HT receptor pathways for cell type‐resolved modulation of prefrontal layer 5 microcircuits

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Serotonin differentially modulates layer 5 mPFC microcircuits through cell type‐specific pre‐ and postsynaptic receptor pathways. Presynaptic 5‐HT1BRs suppress glutamate and GABA release, whereas presynaptic and postsynaptic 5‐HT3ARs enhance fast‐spiking interneuron activity, whilst distinct pyramidal neuron subtypes exhibit divergent 5‐HT1AR‐ and 5 ...
