Efficacy of serotonin receptor agonists in the treatment of functional dyspepsia: a meta-analysis [PDF]
Introduction Functional dyspepsia (FD) is typically treated with serotonin receptor (5-HT) agonists such as cisapride, mosapride, tegaserod and tandospirone citrate.

Predicted Structures and Dynamics for Agonists and Antagonists Bound to Serotonin 5-HT2B and 5-HT2C Receptors [PDF]
Subtype 2 serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT) receptors are major drug targets for schizophrenia, feeding disorders, perception, depression, migraines, hypertension, anxiety, hallucinogens, and gastrointestinal dysfunctions.' We report here ...

Serotonin 2C receptor agonists and the behavioural satiety sequence in mice
The studies reported here examined the role of the 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT)(2C) receptor subtype in the control of ingestive behaviour in mice. Behavioural satiety sequence (BSS) and food intake measurements were taken, comparing the selective 5-HT(2C) receptor agonist (S)-2-(6-chloro-5-fluoro-indol-l-yl)-l-methylethylamine hydrochloride (Ro 60-0175;

Triptans and CGRP blockade – impact on the cranial vasculature [PDF]
The trigeminovascular system plays a key role in the pathophysiology of migraine. The activation of the trigeminovascular system causes release of various neurotransmitters and neuropeptides, including serotonin and calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP),

Identification of serotonin 5-HT1A receptor partial agonists in ginger
Animal studies suggest that ginger (Zingiber officinale Roscoe) reduces anxiety. In this study, bioactivity-guided fractionation of a ginger extract identified nine compounds that interact with the human serotonin 5-HT(1A) receptor with significant to moderate binding affinities (K(i)=3-20 microM).

The burden of type 2 diabetes and its associated premature morbidity and mortality is rapidly growing, and the need for novel efficacious treatments is pressing. We report here that serotonin 2C receptor (5-HT(2C)R) agonists, typically investigated for their anorectic properties, significantly improve glucose tolerance and reduce plasma insulin in ...

Effect of Chronic Serotonin-2 Receptor Agonist or Antagonist Administration on Serotonin-1A Receptor Sensitivity [PDF]
We have investigated the effect of 5-HT2 receptor agonist or antagonist administration on postsynaptic 5-HT1A receptor sensitivity assessed by two behavioral measures, reciprocal forepaw treading or hypothermia induced by acute injection of the 5-HT1A receptor agonist 8-OH-DPAT.

There are several models of how serotonergic psychedelic drugs affect brain activity. Here the authors use network control theory and functional MRI data to provide evidence that serotonin receptor agonists LSD and psilocybin flatten the brain’s dynamic ...
