2. Serotonin - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serotonin

   Serotonin (/ ˌsɛrəˈtoʊnɪn, ˌsɪərə -/) [6][7][8] or 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) is a monoamine neurotransmitter. Its biological function is complex, touching on diverse functions including mood, cognition, reward, learning, memory, and numerous physiological processes such as vomiting and vasoconstriction. [9]

3. 5-HT receptor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/5-HT_receptor

   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.

4. Serotonin transporter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serotonin_transporter

   Serotonin transporter. The serotonin transporter (SERT or 5-HTT) also known as the sodium-dependent serotonin transporter and solute carrier family 6 member 4 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SLC6A4 gene. [5] SERT is a type of monoamine transporter protein that transports the neurotransmitter serotonin from the synaptic cleft back ...

5. 5-HT2A receptor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/5-HT2A_receptor

   The 5-HT 2A receptor is a subtype of the 5-HT 2 receptor that belongs to the serotonin receptor family and is a G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR). [4] The 5-HT 2A receptor is a cell surface receptor, [5] but has several intracellular locations. [6] Like all 5-HT 2 receptors, the 5-HT 2A receptor is G q /G 11-protein coupled.

6. 5-HT1A receptor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/5-HT1A_receptor

   receptor. The serotonin 1A receptor (or 5-HT1A receptor) is a subtype of serotonin receptors, or 5-HT receptors, that binds serotonin, also known as 5-HT, a neurotransmitter. 5-HT1A is expressed in the brain, spleen, and neonatal kidney. It is a G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR), coupled to the Gi protein, and its activation in the brain ...

7. 5-HT3 receptor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/5-HT3_receptor

   The 5-HT3 receptor belongs to the Cys-loop superfamily of ligand-gated ion channels (LGICs) and therefore differs structurally and functionally from all other 5-HT receptors (5-hydroxytryptamine, or serotonin receptors) which are G protein-coupled receptors. [1][2][3] This ion channel is cation -selective and mediates neuronal depolarization ...
