Abstract:

Serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT) is known to influence cerebrovascular functions such as local cerebral blood flow (CBF) and blood brain barrier (BBB) permeability, and has been implicated in cerebrovascular diseases. The present study used a multifaceted approach to determine the distribution, density and origin of the 5-HT innervation of blood vessels at the base of the brain and overlying the cerebral cortex as well as those embedded in the cortical parenchyma. In addition, the type(s) of 5-HT receptor(s) present on intracortical blood vessels as well as their precise cellular localiza

Abstract:

Depression is a common mood disorder. Although major ethical challenges make it nearly impossible to invasively and directly measure serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT) levels in human brains, neuroimaging technologies have shown macroscopic structural and functional abnormalities in the prefrontal cortex (PFC) of depressed patients. The monoamine hypothesis of depression is based on the neurotransmitter imbalance, such as deceased serotonin brain levels are implicated in the cause of depression. Research has focused on the control mechanisms involved in the dorsal raphé nucleus (DRN) which

The probable 5-HT binding site was identified between helices 3, 4, 5 and 6. Interactions between the natural ligand 5-HT (A) and the receptor models are described in detail and the agonist binding site is further validated by the docking of four known 5-HT receptor ligands.

Exposure of cortical synaptosomes to citalopram produced a marked decrease of 5-HT uptake at all time intervals of pre-incubation. However, the PKC activator PMA failed to produce unequivocal changes in the tate of 5-HT uptake by cortical

Of the seven existing classes of serotonin receptors, the 5-HT7 receptors (5-HT7Rs) are the most recently discovered.

Existing research has afforded a number of compounds exhibiting specific affinity to the receptor. These selective ligands can provide structural information about the receptor and can serve as the foundation for pharmacological profiling .

Purpose: 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) is an important neurotransmitter in depression. It is believed that α 1 and α 2 adrenoceptors mediate the 5-HT level in the brain. The mechanism is complex and not well explored. Especially in different combination treatments, the receptor systems may show varied modulation capability. Additionally, some research has suggested that α 2 heteroceptors may contribute to the time delay problem in dual depression treatment which is thought as the time needed for certain inhibition receptor to get desensitized.

As axons from the raphe nuclei densely innervate the somatosensory cortex, the modulation of transmitter release by serotonin (5-HT) was investigated in pyramidal cells in layer II of rat barrel cortex. The idea was that 5-HT, via presynaptic 5-HT2 receptors (5-HT2R) coupled to Gq proteins, activates Ca2+ release from stores to increase spontaneous transmitter release. Addition of 10 µM 5-HT, in the presence of TTX and gabazine, caused a waxing and waning of the instantaneous mEPSC frequency. Specifically, 5-HT increased the frequency by 28 ± 7% within 5

There has been much research on serotonin (5-HT) 1A and 2A receptor activity, and speculation on how these receptors are implicated in the etiology of depression.

The 5-HT[sub 1A] and 5-HT[sub 2A] receptors appear to be controlled by corticosteroids in a biphasic manner; low corticosteroid levels exert influence on 5-HT[sub 1A] receptor activity, while high levels activate 5-HT[sub 2A] receptors.

Abstract:

Affective disorders represent one of the greatest global burdens of disease. Work in patients with affective disorders demonstrates that serotonin (5-HT) signaling within the prefrontal cortex, particularly at the level of the 5-HT receptors, plays an integral role in both the pathology and treatment of these diseases. Surprisingly, the characterization of the prefrontal 5-HT receptors under both healthy and pathological conditions remains incomplete.

In the absence of ligand, certain growth factor receptors can be activated via G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) activation in a process termed transactivation. Serotonin (5-HT) receptors can transactivate the receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) ?? receptors in smooth muscle cells, but it is not known if similar pathways occur in neuronal cells. Here, it is shown that 5-HT can transiently increase the phosphorylation of PDGF?? receptors in a time- and concentration-dependent manner in SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells.
