Plasma Serotonin and Cardiovascular Outcomes in Chronic Kidney Disease

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2023
Background Platelet‐poor plasma serotonin levels are associated with adverse cardiovascular outcomes. Although plasma serotonin levels increase in chronic kidney disease, the cardiovascular implications remain unknown.

The Effects of Serotonin in Immune Cells

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2017
Serotonin [5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT)] plays an important role in many organs as a peripheral hormone. Most of the body’s serotonin is circulating in the bloodstream, transported by blood platelets and is released upon activation.

Psychiatric and cognitive function in patients with serotonin producing neuroendocrine tumors [PDF]

open access: yesTranslational Psychiatry
Cognitive and psychiatric problems are common in cancer patients, but literature on patients with neuroendocrine tumors (NET) is scarce. In a subset of these patients, the tumor produces serotonin, causing physical symptoms known as carcinoid syndrome ...

Serotonin syndrome: a clinical review of current controversies [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Neuroscience, 2020
Serotonin syndrome is a state of increased central and peripheral serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine) activity. Unless recognized and treated early, serotonin syndrome can lead to seizures, shock and death.

The serotonin theory of depression: a systematic umbrella review of the evidence

open access: yesMolecular Psychiatry, 2022
The serotonin hypothesis of depression is still influential. We aimed to synthesise and evaluate evidence on whether depression is associated with lowered serotonin concentration or activity in a systematic umbrella review of the principal relevant areas

The Role of Serotonin Neurotransmission in Gastrointestinal Tract and Pharmacotherapy

open access: yesMolecules, 2022
5-Hydroxytryptamine (5-HT, serotonin) is a neurotransmitter in both the central nervous system and peripheral structures, acting also as a hormone in platelets.

A genetically encoded sensor for measuring serotonin dynamics

open access: yesNature Neuroscience, 2021
Serotonin (5-HT) is a phylogenetically conserved monoamine neurotransmitter modulating important processes in the brain. To directly visualize the release of 5-HT, we developed a genetically encoded G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCR)-activation-based 5-HT

Targeting SERT promotes tryptophan metabolism: mechanisms and implications in colon cancer treatment

open access: yesJournal of Experimental & Clinical Cancer Research, 2021
Background Serotonin signaling has been associated with tumorigenesis and tumor progression. Targeting the serotonin transporter to block serotonin cellular uptake confers antineoplastic effects in various tumors, including colon cancer.

Monoamine Oxidase A Contributes to Serotonin—But Not Norepinephrine-Dependent Damage of Rat Ventricular Myocytes

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2023
Serotonin effects on cardiac hypertrophy, senescence, and failure are dependent either on activation of specific receptors or serotonin uptake and serotonin degradation by monoamine oxidases (MAOs).
