Distribution of Metabotropic Serotonin Receptors in GABAergic and Glutamatergic Neurons in the Auditory Midbrain. [PDF]
The results from this study suggest that the serotonin receptors Htr1a, Htr1b, Htr2a, and Htr2c are largely expressed in the inferior colliculus (IC). Htr1a and Htr1b, which are inhibitory serotonin receptors, are more likely to be expressed by IC glutamatergic neurons.

Teratogenic Effects of Serotonin Receptor 2B Disruption on the Migration and Cardiac Derivatives of the Cardiac Neural Crest. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background Cardiac neural crest cells (cNCCs) are critical for heart development, and their disruption can result in congenital heart defects. Serotonin (5‐HT) signaling, specifically via 5‐HT2B and 5‐HT2C receptors, regulates diverse physiological processes, including neural crest migration.

Serotonin (5-HT) appears to play a major role in controlling adult hippocampal neurogenesis and thereby it is relevant for theories linking failing adult neurogenesis to the pathogenesis of major depression and the mechanisms of action of antidepressants.

Central serotonin2C receptor : from physiology to pathology [PDF]
Since the 1950s, when serotonin (5-HT) was discovered in the mammalian central nervous system (CNS), an enormous amount of experimental evidence has revealed the pivotal role of this biogenic amine in a number of cognitive and behavioural functions ...

Return of the lysergamides. Part IV: Analytical and pharmacological characterization of lysergic acid morpholide (LSM-775) [PDF]
Lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD) is perhaps one of the best-known psychoactive substances and many structural modifications of this prototypical lysergamide have been investigated. Several lysergamides were recently encountered as “research chemicals” or

N-Benzyl-5-methoxytryptamines as Potent Serotonin 5-HT2Receptor Family Agonists and Comparison with a Series of Phenethylamine Analogues [PDF]
A series of N-benzylated-5-methoxytryptamine analogues was prepared and investigated, with special emphasis on substituents in the meta position of the benzyl group. A parallel series of several N-benzylated analogues of 2,5-dimethoxy-4-iodophenethylamine (2C-I) also was included for comparison of the two major templates (i.e., tryptamine and ...

Central serotonin-2A (5-HT2A) receptor dysfunction in depression and epilepsy : the missing link? [PDF]
5-Hydroxytryptamine 2A receptors (5-HT2A-Rs) are G-protein coupled receptors. In agreement with their location in the brain, they have been implicated not only in various central physiological functions including memory, sleep, nociception, eating and ...

Receptor interaction profiles of novel psychoactive tryptamines compared with classic hallucinogens [PDF]
The present study investigated interactions between the novel psychoactive tryptamines DiPT, 4-OH-DiPT, 4-OH-MET, 5-MeO-AMT, and 5-MeO-MiPT at monoamine receptors and transporters compared with the classic hallucinogens lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD ...
