Because there are too many side-effects for 5-HT to be used as a drug, scientists started research on the receptors of 5-HT in order to discover and develop a more specific agonist for 5-HT receptors. Research on the 5-HT receptors and their effect led to discovery of several types and subtypes of 5-HT. AH24167 showed a vasodilation effect ...
Triptans are selective agents for 5-HT 1B and 5-HT 1D [34] and have low or even no affinity for other types of 5-HT receptors. [22] 5-HT receptors are classified into seven different families named 5-HT 1 to 5-HT 7. All receptors are G protein coupled receptors with seven transmembrane domains with the one exception of 5-HT 3 receptor which is ...
Azapirones such as buspirone, gepirone, and tandospirone are 5-HT 1A receptor partial agonists marketed primarily as anxiolytics, but also as antidepressants. The antidepressants vilazodone and vortioxetine are 5-HT 1A receptor partial agonists. Flibanserin, a drug used for female sexual dysfunction, is a 5-HT 1A receptor partial agonist.
The 5-HT 1B receptor as an example of a metabotropic serotonin receptor. Its crystallographic structure in ribbon representation. 5-HT receptors, 5-hydroxytryptamine receptors, or serotonin receptors, are a group of G protein-coupled receptor and ligand-gated ion channels found in the central and peripheral nervous systems.
5-HT 1D receptor agonists are pharmaceutical drugs for the treatment of migraine. They include: Triptans (which additionally act as 5-HT 1B receptor agonists) Ergotamine (which also has other mechanisms of action) Dihydroergotamine, a derivative of the former; Alniditan
The 5-HT 1 receptors are a subfamily of the 5-HT serotonin receptors that bind to the endogenous neurotransmitter serotonin (also known as 5-hydroxytryptamine, or 5-HT). [1] The 5-HT 1 subfamily consists of five G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) that share 40% to 63% overall sequence homology, including 5-HT 1A, 5-HT 1B, 5-HT 1D, 5-HT 1E, and 5-HT 1F. [2]

Eletriptan is a serotonin receptor agonist, specifically an agonist of certain 5-HT 1 family receptors. Eletriptan binds with high affinity to the 5-HT [1B , 1D , 1F] receptors. It has a modest affinity to the 5-HT [1A , 1E , 2B , 7] receptors, and little to no affinity at the 5-HT [2A , 2C , 3 , 4 , 5A , 6] receptors.
