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 ...

Pinpointing brainstem mechanisms responsible for autonomic dysfunction in Rett syndrome:therapeutic perspectives for 5-HT1A agonists [PDF]
, 2014 Rett syndrome is a neurological disorder caused by loss of function of methyl-CpG-binding protein 2 (MeCP2). Reduced function of this ubiquitous transcriptional regulator has a devastating effect on the central nervous system.

Serotonin Receptors: Genetic insights into serotonin function [PDF]
Current Biology, 1995 Targeted disruption of the genes for the 5-HT1B and 5-HT2C serotonin receptors and monoamine oxidase A have confirmed pharmacological experiments and revealed unexpected behavioral roles for serotonin.

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 ...

Classification of Serotonin Receptors
Journal of Cardiovascular Pharmacology, 1987 The subdivision of serotonin (5-HT) receptors into three classes, designated 5-HT1, 5-HT2, and 5-HT3, has been based on radioligand binding studies and experiments in isolated tissues. As a result of radioligand binding studies, two types of 5-HT recognition sites have been postulated. One site specifically labeled by [3H]5-HT was termed 5-HT1, and the

Expression of Serotonin Receptors in Bone [PDF]
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2001 The 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) receptors 5-HT(2A), 5-HT(2B), and 5-HT(2C) belong to a subfamily of serotonin receptors. Amino acid and mRNA sequences of these receptors have been published for several species including man. The 5-HT(2) receptors have been reported to act on nervous, muscle, and endothelial tissues.

Role of serotonin via 5-HT2B receptors in the reinforcing effects of MDMA in mice. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2009 The amphetamine derivative 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA, ecstasy) reverses dopamine and serotonin transporters to produce efflux of dopamine and serotonin, respectively, in regions of the brain that have been implicated in reward. However, the
