Serotonin receptors are found in almost all animals and are even known to regulate longevity and behavioural aging in the primitivenematode,Caenorhabditis elegans.[5][6]
5-hydroxytryptamine receptors or 5-HT receptors, or serotonin receptors are found in thecentral andperipheral nervous systems.[1][2] They can be divided into 7 families ofG protein-coupled receptors which activate anintracellularsecond messenger cascade to produce an excitatory or inhibitory response. The exception to this is the5-HT3 receptor which is aligand-gated ion channel. In 2014, a novel 5-HT receptor was isolated from the small white butterfly,Pieris rapae, and named pr5-HT8. It does not occur in mammals and shares relatively low similarity to the known 5-HT receptor classes.[7]
The 7 general serotonin receptor classes include a total of 14 known serotonin receptors.[9] The 15th receptor 5-HT1P 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]
Information on serotonin receptors (human isoforms if nothing else is stated)
Note that there is no 5-HT1C receptor since, after the receptor was cloned and further characterized, it was found to have more in common with the 5-HT2 family of receptors and was redesignated as the 5-HT2C receptor.[107]
The genes coding for serotonin receptors are expressed across the mammalian brain. Genes coding for different receptors types follow different developmental curves. Specifically, there is a developmental increase of HTR5A expression in several subregions of the human cortex, paralleled by a decreased expression of HTR1A from the embryonic period to the post-natal one.[108]
A number of receptors were classed as "5-HT1-like" - by 1998 it was being argued that, since these receptors were "a heterogeneous population of 5-HT1B, 5-HT1D and 5-HT7" receptors the classification was redundant.[109]
