serotonin history
1. discovered 1948
2. autocoid and NT
3. most diverse physiological substance in body
serotonin functions-periphery
1. smooth muscle contraction
2. gi enterochromaffin cells (control acid production, gastric motility)
**mediator of pain and itching **opposite of HA
serotonin functions- non-neuronal
platelets, CV system, gi cells (90%)
serotonin functions- CNS
memory, pain (migraine), appetite, sleep, mood and emotions
5HT receptor family
6 types/ 13 subtypes: GCPR
1 type/ 2 subtypes: ligand gated ion channel (Na/K)
4 types: distribution and signalling mechanism
