Forty-five years after its discovery, brain serotonin (5-HT) is still the subject of intense research aimed at understanding its role in stress adaptation. At the presynaptic level, numerous stressors increase nerve firing and extracellular 5-HT at the level of serotonergic cell bodies or nerve terminals.

Serotonin system implication in L-DOPA-induced dyskinesia: from animal models to clinical investigations [PDF]
In the recent years, the serotonin system has emerged as a key player in the induction of l-DOPA-induced dyskinesia (LID) in animal models of Parkinson's disease. In fact, serotonin neurons possess the enzymatic machinery able to convert exogenous l-DOPA
