Cartography of Serotonergic Circuits [PDF]
Neuron, 2014 Serotonin is an essential neuromodulator, but the precise circuit connectivity that regulates serotonergic neurons has not been well defined. Using rabies virus tracing strategies Weissbourd et al. (2014) and Pollak Dorocic et al. (2014) in this issue of Neuron and Ogawa et al.

Two eARCHT3.0 Lines for Optogenetic Silencing of Dopaminergic and Serotonergic Neurons
Frontiers in Neural Circuits, 2019 Dopaminergic and serotonergic neurons modulate and control processes ranging from reward signaling to regulation of motor outputs. Further, dysfunction of these neurons is involved in both degenerative and psychiatric disorders.

Characterization of the Sexually Dimorphic fruitless Neurons That Regulate Copulation Duration
Frontiers in Physiology, 2018 Male courtship in Drosophila melanogaster is a sexually dimorphic innate behavior that is hardwired in the nervous system. Understanding the neural mechanism of courtship behavior requires the anatomical and functional characterization of all the neurons

Synaptic activity in serotonergic neurons is required for air-puff stimulated flight in Drosophila melanogaster. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 BACKGROUND: Flight is an integral component of many complex behavioral patterns in insects. The giant fiber circuit has been well studied in several insects including Drosophila.

Serotonergic Psychedelics in Neural Plasticity [PDF]
Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2021 Psychedelics, compounds that can induce dramatic changes in conscious experience, have been used by humans for centuries. Recent studies have shown that certain psychedelics can induce neural plasticity by promoting neurite growth and synapse formation. In this review, we focus on the role of classical serotonergic psychedelics in neural plasticity and
