Serotonin stimulates Echinococcus multilocularis larval development

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2021
Background Serotonin is a phylogenetically ancient molecule that is widely distributed in most metazoans, including flatworms. In addition to its role as a neurotransmitter, serotonin acts as a morphogen and regulates developmental processes.

Serotonin transporter dependent modulation of food-seeking behavior.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
The olfactory pathway integrates the odor information required to generate correct behavioral responses. To address how changes of serotonin signaling in two contralaterally projecting, serotonin-immunoreactive deutocerebral neurons impacts key odorant ...

Serotonin after β-Adrenoreceptors’ Exposition: New Approaches for Personalized Data in Breast Cancer Cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Serotonin is an important monoamine in the human body, playing crucial roles, such as a neurotransmitter in the central nervous system. Previously, our group reported that β-adrenergic drugs (ICI 118,551, isoprenaline, and propranolol) influence the ...

Identification, functional characterization and pharmacological profile of a serotonin type-2b receptor in the medically important insect, Rhodnius prolixus

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2015
In the Chagas disease vector, Rhodnius prolixus, two diuretic hormones act synergistically to dramatically increase fluid secretion by the Malpighian tubules (MTs) during the rapid diuresis that is initiated upon engorgement of vertebrate blood.

Serotonin: beyond menopause [PDF]

open access: yesRomanian Journal of Medical Practice, 2016
Serotonin is a brain neurotransmitter, a local gut-produced pro-kinetic agent and a platelets-released monoamine with haemostasis role. We focus on revealing the serotonin interferences with menopause mainly related to climacteric syndrome and bone ...

Serotonin system in the human placenta – the knowns and unknowns

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2022
The biogenic monoamine serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT) is a chemical messenger widely distributed in the brain and various other organs. Its homeostasis is maintained by the coordinated activity of a variety of proteins, including enzymes of ...

Interaction between Intestinal Microbiota and Serotonin Metabolism

open access: yesJournal of Mazandaran University of Medical Sciences, 2021
Gut microbiota regulates the production of signaling molecules, such as serotonin or 5-Hydroxytryptamine: 5-HT in the host. Serotonin is a biogenic amine that acts as a neurotransmitter in the gut and brain.

DNA methylation of the serotonin transporter gene in peripheral cells and stress-related changes in hippocampal volume: a study in depressed patients and healthy controls.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Serotonin plays an important role in the etiology of depression. Serotonin is also crucial for brain development. For instance, animal studies have demonstrated that early disruptions in the serotonin system affect brain development and emotion ...

Environment-Sensitive Fluorescence of 7-Nitrobenz-2-oxa-1,3-diazol-4-yl (NBD)-Labeled Ligands for Serotonin Receptors

open access: yesMolecules, 2021
Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that plays a crucial role in the regulation of several behavioral and cognitive functions by binding to a number of different serotonin receptors present on the cell surface.

Serotonin signaling regulates actomyosin contractility during morphogenesis in evolutionarily divergent lineages

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that signals through 5-HT receptors to control key functions in the nervous system. Serotonin receptors are also ubiquitously expressed in various organs and have been detected in embryos of different organisms.
