Characterization of the Novel Human Serotonin Receptor Subunits 5-HT3C, 5-HT3D, and 5-HT3E □S
Within the family of serotonin receptors, the 5-hydroxytryptamine-3 (5-HT3) receptor is the only ligand-gated ion channel. It is composed of five subunits, of which the 5-HT3A and 5-HT3B subunits are best characterized. Several studies, however, have reported on the functional diversity of native 5-HT3 receptors, which cannot solely be explained on the basis of the 5-HT3A and 5-HT3B subunits. A...

متن کاملThe Serotonin 5-HT2A Receptor Antagonist Ritanserin Induces Apoptosis in Human Colorectal Cancer and Acts in Synergy with Curcumin
Curcumin exhibits both cancer- preventive activity and growth inhibitory effects on several neoplastic cells including human colon cancer. Serotonin and its receptors have also been implicated in tumor development. This study investigated the effect of ritanserin, a selective serotonin 5HT2A receptor antagonist, alone and in combination with curcumin on colorectal cancer cell lines. Result...
متن کامل5-HT2A Serotonin Receptor Density in Adult Male Rats’ Hippocampus after Morphine-based Conditioned Place Preference
Introduction: A close interaction exists between the brain opioid and serotonin (5-HT) neurotransmitter systems. Brain neurotransmitter 5-HT plays an important role in the regulation of reward-related processing. However, a few studies have investigated the potential role of 5-HT2A receptors in this behavior. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to assess the influence of...
متن کاملSerotonin receptor 5-HT2B mediates serotonin-induced mechanical hyperalgesia.
Serotonin [5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT)] released from mast cells or platelets in peripheral tissues is one of the important inflammatory mediators in pain and hyperalgesia. The involvement of 5-HT in pain is complex because it could inhibit or facilitate nociceptive transmission, reflecting the presence of multiple 5-HT subtype receptors on peripheral and central nociceptors. The present study a...
