Pinpointing brainstem mechanisms responsible for autonomic dysfunction in Rett syndrome: therapeutic perspectives for 5-HT1A agonists [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Rett syndrome is a neurological disorder caused by loss of function of methyl-CpG-binding protein 2 (MeCP2). Reduced function of this ubiquitous transcriptional regulator has a devastating effect on the central nervous system.

Involvement of 5-HT2A receptor hyperfunction in the anxiety-like behavior induced by doxorubicin and cyclophosphamide combination treatment in rats

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2018
We examined whether combination treatment with doxorubicin and cyclophosphamide, a traditional chemotherapy for breast cancer, induced anxiety-like behavior in rats.

Dual actions of 5‐MeO‐DIPT at the serotonin transporter and serotonin 5‐HT1A receptor in the mouse striatum and prefrontal cortex

open access: yesNeuropsychopharmacology Reports, 2021
Aims 5‐Methoxy‐N,N‐diisopropyltryptamine (5‐MeO‐DIPT) is a synthetic orally active hallucinogenic tryptamine analogue. The present study examined whether the effects of 5‐MeO‐DIPT involve the serotonin transporter (SERT) and serotonin 5‐hydroxytryptamine‐

Molecular and pharmacological characterization of serotonin 5-HT2α and 5-HT7 receptors in the salivary glands of the blowfly calliphora vicina [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Secretion in blowfly (Calliphora vicina) salivary glands is stimulated by the biogenic amine serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT), which activates both inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP3)/Ca2+ and cyclic adenosine 3′,5′-monophosphate (cAMP) signalling ...

Hippocampal 5-HT1A receptor and spatial learning and memory

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2015
Spatial cognition is fundamental for survival in the topographically complex environments inhabited by humans and other animals. The hippocampus, which has a central role in spatial cognition, is characterized by high concentration of serotonin (5 ...

Expression of serotonin 1A and 2A receptors in molecular- and projection-defined neurons of the mouse insular cortex

open access: yesMolecular Brain, 2020
The serotonin (5-HT) system is the target of multiple anxiolytics, including Buspirone, which is a partial agonist of the serotonin 1A receptor (5-HT1A). Similarly, ligands of the serotonin 2A receptor (5-HT2A) were shown to alter anxiety level.

Transcriptional dysregulation of 5-HT1A autoreceptors in mental illness

open access: yesMolecular Brain, 2011
The serotonin-1A (5-HT1A) receptor is among the most abundant and widely distributed 5-HT receptors in the brain, but is also expressed on serotonin neurons as an autoreceptor where it plays a critical role in regulating the activity of the entire ...

Exploring the impact of BDNF Val66Met genotype on serotonin transporter and serotonin-1A receptor binding. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
The brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) Val66Met polymorphism (rs6265) may impact on the in-vivo binding of important serotonergic structures such as the serotonin transporter (5-HTT) and the serotonin-1A (5-HT1A) receptor.

5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) cellular sequestration during chronic exposure delays 5-HT3 receptor resensitization due to Its subsequent release [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The serotonergic synapse is dynamically regulated by serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT)) with elevated levels leading to the down-regulation of the serotonin transporter and a variety of 5-HT receptors, including the 5-HT type-3 (5-HT3) receptors.

Heterodimerization of serotonin receptors 5-HT1A and 5-HT7 differentially regulates receptor signalling and trafficking [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Serotonin receptors 5-HT1A and 5-HT7 are highly coexpressed in brain regions implicated in depression. However, their functional interaction has not been established.
