Role of serotonin on pituitary-thyroid functions and antioxidants in diabetic male rats
Diabetes mellitus causes an increase in oxidative stress. Serotonin is a hormone its level in circulation reduced in diabetes; recently, it has been found to possess antioxidant qualities.

Single- and multi-photon excited fluorescence from serotonin complexed with B-cyclodextrin [PDF]
The fluorescence of serotonin on binding with B-cyclodextrin has been studied using both steady-state and time-resolved methods. Steady state fluorescence intensity of serotonin at 340 nm showed ~ 30% increase in intensity on binding with Ka ~ 60 dm3 mol

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.

Interaction between Intestinal Microbiota and Serotonin Metabolism
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.

Serotonin modulates Campylobacter jejuni physiology and in vitro interaction with the gut epithelium
Microbial endocrinology, which is the study of neurochemical-based host–microbe interaction, has demonstrated that neurochemicals affect bacterial pathogenicity.

Rhythmic whisker movements, called "whisking," are produced by a brainstem central pattern generator (CPG) that uses serotonin to induce periodic firing in facial motorneurons. During active touch, motor cortex could regulate whisking frequency by controlling the rate of firing of the serotonergic neurons.

Serotonin drives a novel GABAergic synaptic current recorded in rat cerebellar purkinje cells: a lugaro cell to purkinje cell synapse [PDF]
We recorded a novel fast GABAergic synaptic current in cerebellar Purkinje cells in rat brain slices using patch-clamp techniques. Because of a relatively low sensitivity to bicuculline, these currents can be recorded under conditions in which basket and

Background: The off-target effects linezolid have the potential to cause serotonin syndrome when given in conjunction with serotonergic agents. Despite package insert labeling as a contraindication, several postmarketing studies have demonstrated a low ...

Female genital disorder as adverse symptom of lamotrigine treatment - A serotoninergic effect? [PDF]
The new anticonvulsant, lamotrigine, is becoming an important tool in the treatment of bipolar disorder, including bipolar depression. Its efficacy in bipolar depression might be linked to its inhibition of serotonin uptake.

Organization of Monosynaptic Inputs to the Serotonin and Dopamine Neuromodulatory Systems
Serotonin and dopamine are major neuromodulators. Here, we used a modified rabies virus to identify monosynaptic inputs to serotonin neurons in the dorsal and median raphe (DR and MR).
