Background / Function
This is one of the several different receptors for 5-hydroxytryptamine (serotonin), a biogenic hormone that functions as a neurotransmitter, a hormone, and a mitogen. This receptor is a ligand-gated ion channel, which when activated causes fast, depolarizing responses in neurons. It is a cation-specific, but otherwise relatively nonselective, ion channel.Miyake A., Mol. Pharmacol. 48:407-416(1995).Belelli D., Mol. Pharmacol. 48:1054-1062(1995).Yamada K., Biol. Psychiatry 60:192-201(2006).
