Palmitoyl Acyltransferase Zdhhc17 Promotes Functional Recovery After Spinal Cord Injury by Targeting the Nuclear Transport Factors Kpna2 and Ipo9

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In this study, we demonstrate that Zdhhc17, acting as a PAT, suppresses neuronal apoptosis and promotes axon regeneration after injury, thereby enhancing functional recovery following SCI. In this context, Kpna2 and Ipo9 serve as novel palmitoylation substrates of Zdhhc17, whose palmitoylation prevents the injury‐induced degradation of their proteins ...

Deconstructing antiobesity compound action : requirement of serotonin 5-HT2B receptors for dexfenfluramine anorectic effects

open access: yes, 2010
The now-banned anorectic molecule, dexfenfluramine, promotes serotonin release through a serotonin transporter-dependent mechanism, and it has been widely prescribed for the treatment of obesity.

A Gut‐Brain Axis Underlying Succinate‐Associated Compulsive‐Like Behavior

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Gut‐derived succinate is associated with an excitatory‐inhibitory imbalance in dmPFC glutamatergic neurons, involving microglial SUCNR1 activation and vagal afferent signaling via upregulated gut 5‐HT4 receptors along the DVC‐CeA‐dmPFC circuit, changes that are linked to excessive compulsive‐like behavior.

Behavioral Mechanisms That Depend on Dopamine and Serotonin in Interact With the Antipsychotics Risperidone and Aripiprazole

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Neuroscience, 2018
The neurotransmitters dopamine and serotonin participate in specific behavioral neuromuscular mechanisms in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans . Dopamine is involved in the gentle touch response and serotonin in the pharyngeal pumping rate.

Contribution of gene-modified mice and rats to our understanding of the cardiovascular pharmacology of serotonin

open access: yes, 2010
International audienceThis review focuses on new insights provided by gene-modified animals into the cardiovascular pharmacology of serotonin. During their development, mice mutant for tryptophan hydroxylase 1 and lacking peripheral serotonin, or mutant ...

Serotonin receptors as cardiovascular targets [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
Serotonin exerts complex effects in the cardiovascular system, including hypotension or hypertension, vasodilatation or vasoconstriction, and/or bradycardia or tachycardia; the eventual response depends primarily on the nature of the 5-HT receptors ...

Co‐activation of Selective Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptor Subtypes Is Required for Neuroprotection against Alzheimer's Disease

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Beta‐amyloid peptide (Aβ)‐induced suppression of hippocampal GABAergic interneuron activity drives hyperexcitability, amyloid pathology, and cognitive impairment in Alzheimer's disease (AD), suggesting that enhancing hippocampal inhibition may be protective.

Multimodal antidepressant vortioxetine causes analgesia in a mouse model of chronic neuropathic pain

open access: yesMolecular Pain, 2018
Vortioxetine is a multimodal antidepressant that potently antagonizes 5-HT3 serotonin receptors, inhibits the high-affinity serotonin transporter, activates 5-HT1A and 5-HT1B receptors, and antagonizes 5-HT1D and 5-HT7 receptors.

Serotonin modulates insect hemocyte phagocytosis via two different serotonin receptors

open access: yeseLife, 2016
Serotonin (5-HT) modulates both neural and immune responses in vertebrates, but its role in insect immunity remains uncertain. We report that hemocytes in the caterpillar, Pieris rapae are able to synthesize 5-HT following activation by ...
