  3. Serotonin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serotonin

    Serotonin secreted from the enterochromaffin cells eventually finds its way out of tissues into the blood. There, it is actively taken up by blood platelets, which store it. When the platelets bind to a clot, they release serotonin, which can serve as a vasoconstrictor or a vasodilator while regulating hemostasis and blood clotting.

  4. 5-HT receptor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/5-HT_receptor

    The 7 general serotonin receptor classes include a total of 14 known serotonin receptors. [9] The 15th receptor 5-HT 1P has been distinguished on the basis of functional and radioligand binding studies, its existence has never been definitely affirmed or refuted. [10] [11] The specific types have been characterized as follows: [12] [13] [14]

  6. 5-HT2A receptor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/5-HT2A_receptor

    5-HT receptors were split into two classes by John Gaddum and Picarelli when it was discovered that some of the serotonin-induced changes in the gut could be blocked by morphine, while the remainder of the response was inhibited by dibenzyline, leading to the naming of M and D receptors, respectively. 5-HT 2A is thought to correspond to what was originally described as D subtype of 5-HT ...

  7. Autoreceptor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autoreceptor

    Autoreceptors may be located in any part of the cell membrane: in the dendrites, the cell body, the axon, or the axon terminals. [1] Canonically, a presynaptic neuron releases a neurotransmitter across a synaptic cleft to be detected by the receptors on a postsynaptic neuron. Autoreceptors on the presynaptic neuron will also detect this ...

  8. 5-HT3 receptor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/5-HT3_receptor

    Binding of the neurotransmitter 5-hydroxytryptamine to the 5-HT 3 receptor opens the channel, which, in turn, leads to an excitatory response in neurons. The rapidly activating, desensitizing, inward current is predominantly carried by sodium and potassium ions.

  9. 5-HT7 receptor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/5-HT7_receptor

    The 5-HT 7 receptor is a member of the GPCR superfamily of cell surface receptors and is activated by the neurotransmitter serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT). [5] The 5-HT 7 receptor is coupled to G s (stimulates the production of the intracellular signaling molecule cAMP) [6] [7] and is expressed in a variety of human tissues, particularly in the brain, the gastrointestinal tract, and in ...
