    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]

  4. 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 ...

  5. 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.

  6. Neurotransmitter receptor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neurotransmitter_receptor

    The ligands that bind and activate these receptors include light-sensitive compounds, odors, pheromones, hormones, and neurotransmitters, and vary in size from small molecules to peptides to large proteins. G protein-coupled receptors are involved in many diseases, and are also the target of approximately 30% of all modern medicinal drugs. [11 ...

    Amphetamine, for example, is an indirect agonist of postsynaptic dopamine, norepinephrine, and serotonin receptors in each their respective neurons; [45] [46] it produces both neurotransmitter release into the presynaptic neuron and subsequently the synaptic cleft and prevents their reuptake from the synaptic cleft by activating TAAR1, a ...

    5-Hydroxytryptamine receptor 2B (5-HT 2B) also known as serotonin receptor 2B is a protein that in humans is encoded by the HTR2B gene. [ 5 ] [ 6 ] 5-HT 2B is a member of the 5-HT 2 receptor family that binds the neurotransmitter serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT).
