The serotonin receptor 5-HT2A modulates lifespan and protein feeding in Drosophila melanogaster
The conserved neurotransmitter serotonin has been shown to be an important modulator of lifespan in specific nutritional contexts; however, it remained unclear how serotonin signaling influences lifespan under normal conditions.

Allosteric activation of the glutamate receptor mGlu2 by the serotonin receptor 5-HT2A [PDF]
G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) dimers and higher-order oligomers are the subject of intense debates. The complexes formed between two or more different GPCRs enable the cell to integrate several signals.

Serotonin 2a Receptor and serotonin 1a receptor interact within the medial prefrontal cortex during recognition memory in mice [PDF]
Episodic memory, can be defined as the memory for unique events. The serotonergic system one of the main neuromodulatory systems in the brain appears to play a role in it.

Glia-to-glia serotonin signaling directs MMP-dependent infiltration for experience-dependent synapse pruning. [PDF]
Synapse connectivity is optimized in response to environmental input in critical periods, characterized by experience-dependent, temporally-restricted, and transiently-reversible synapse pruning by glial phagocytes.

The antidepressant 5-HT2A receptor antagonists pizotifen and cyproheptadine inhibit serotonin-enhanced platelet function. [PDF]
There is considerable interest in defining new agents or targets for antithrombotic purposes. The 5-HT2A receptor is a G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR) expressed on many cell types, and a known therapeutic target for many disease states.

PACAP–PAC1 Signaling Regulates Serotonin 2A Receptor Internalization
Mice lacking pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide (PACAP) display psychomotor abnormalities, most of which are ameliorated by atypical antipsychotics with serotonin (5-HT) 2A receptor (5-HT2A) antagonism. Heterozygous Pacap mutant mice show
