In the CNS, Serotonin modulates several processes, including anxiety, sleep, appetite, behavior and drug abuse.
In platelets and gut, serotonin plays a major role in cardiovascular function and motility of the gastrointestinal tract, respectively.
Serotonin mediates its effects through several of G proteincoupled receptors, designated 5-HT receptors or alternatively SR receptors.
The SR-2 receptors are comprised of three subtypes, SR-2A, SR-2B and SR-2C, which activate phospholipase C and release intracellular stores of calcium in response to Serotonin.
SR-2A has a specific role in tracheal smooth muscle contraction, bronchoconstriction and mediating aldosterone production, and it is also thought to play a role in several psychiatric disorders, including depression and schizophrenia.
SR-2B is expressed in embryonic and adult cardiovascular tissues, gut and brain and plays an important role in the pathology of cardiac disorders.
SR-2C is thought to mediate the effects of atypical antipsychotic drugs.
