Somato-Dendritic Regulation of Raphe Serotonin Neurons; A Key to Antidepressant Action
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2018 Several lines of evidence implicate serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT)in regulating personality traits and mood control. Serotonergic neurons are classically thought to be tonic regular-firing, “clock-like” neurons.

Serotonin system implication in L-DOPA-induced dyskinesia: from animal models to clinical investigations [PDF]
, 2014 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

From behavioral context to receptors: serotonergic modulatory pathways in the IC
Frontiers in Neural Circuits, 2012 In addition to ascending, descending, and lateral auditory projections, inputs extrinsic to the auditory system also influence neural processing in the inferior colliculus.

Fluoxetine: a case history of its discovery and preclinical development [PDF]
, 2014 Introduction: Depression is a multifactorial mood disorder with a high prevalence worldwide. Until now, treatments for depression have focused on the inhibition of monoaminergic reuptake sites, which augment the bioavailability of monoamines in the CNS ...

Serotonin receptors in depression: from A to B [version 1; referees: 3 approved]
F1000Research, 2017 The role of serotonin in major depressive disorder (MDD) is the focus of accumulating clinical and preclinical research. The results of these studies reflect the complexity of serotonin signaling through many receptors, in a large number of brain regions,

Enhanced sensitivity of postsynaptic serotonin-1A receptors in rats and mice with high trait aggression [PDF]
, 2001 Individual differences in aggressive behaviour have been linked to variability in central serotonergic activity, both in humans and animals. A previous experiment in mice, selectively bred for high or low levels of aggression, showed an up-regulation of ...

Can Serotonin 7 Receptors Be a Treatment Target for Noncentral Diseases?
Eurasian Journal of Medicine, 2023 The neurotransmitter serotonin (5-HT) is involved in several key processes in the central nervous system. But the great majority of serotonin is produced by intestinal enterochromafn cells of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract and circulating blood ...

Strain-dependent variations in stress coping behavior are mediated by a 5-HT/GABA interaction within the prefrontal corticolimbic system [PDF]
, 2015 Background: Serotonin and γ- Aminobutyric acid (GABA) transmission is crucial in coping strategies. Methods: Here, using mice from 2 inbred strains widely exploited in behavioral neurochemistry, we investigated whether serotonin transmission in medial ...
