Recently developed antipsychotic drugs ameliorating the negative symptoms of schizophrenia act not only on dopamine D2 receptors but also on serotonin 2A (5-HT2A) and 1A (5-HT1A) receptors in specific regions of the cerebral cortex. Since it is not yet known whether serotonin 5-HT1A and 5-HT2A receptors coexist in the same population of neurons in the cortex, the present study investigated their colocalization...
The present study was designed to investigate whether serotonin 5-HT1A receptor protein (5-HT1A receptor-immunoreactivity), is present on cortical pyramidal neurons of the rat medial prefrontal cortex (MPC) innervating the ventral tegmental area (VTA). Recent data stress the role of serotonin 5-HT1A receptors in the pathology of schizophrenia, and in the mechanism of action of novel antipsychotic...
The hallucinogenic effect of DOI, serotonin 5-HT2A/2C receptor agonist, is known to be associated with the activation of cortical 5-HT2 receptors. However, the effect of DOI on excitability of cortical neurons and their subsequent function is still not quite understood. Previous immunohistochemical studies using Fos proteins expression as a marker of neuronal activity showed the involvement of arachidonic...
