In the field of neurochemistry, 5-HT receptors are receptors for the neurotransmitter and peripheral signal mediator serotonin, also known as 5-hydroxytryptamine or 5-HT. 5-HT receptors are located on the cell membrane of nerve cells and other cell types including smooth muscle in animals, and mediate the effects of serotonin as the endogenous ligand and of a broad range of pharmaceutical and hallucinogenic drugs. All 5-HT receptors reduce cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP).

Serotonin

Classification

With the exception of the 5-HT3 receptor, a ligand gated ion channel, all other 5-HT receptors are G protein coupled seven transmembrane (or heptahelical) receptors that activate an intracellular second messenger cascade.

Families

Family Type Mechanism
5-HT1 Gi/Go coupled decreasing cellular levels of cAMP
5-HT2 Gq/G11 coupled increasing cellular levels of inositol trisphosphate (IP3) and diacylglycerol (DAG)
5-HT3 ligand-gated Na+ and K+ cation channel depolarizing plasma membrane
5-HT4 Gs coupled increasing cellular levels of cAMP
5-HT5A G protein coupled; the primary coupling appears to be through Gi/o inhibiting adenylate cyclase activity.[1]
5-HT7 Gs coupled increasing cellular levels of cAMP

Specific proteins/genes

Within these general classes of 5-HT receptors, a number of specific types have been characterized:

Summary of characterized 5-HT receptors, with selected agonist/antagonist agents
Receptor Gene Actions Agonists Antagonists
5-HT1A HTR1A CNS: neuronal inhibition, behavioural effects (sleep, feeding, thermoregulation, aggression, anxiety) buspirone, psilocin spiperone, methiothepin, ergotamine, yohimbine
5-HT1B HTR1B CNS: presynaptic inhibition, behavioural effects; vascular: pulmonary vasoconstriction ergotamine, sumatriptan methiothepin, yohimbine, metergoline
5-HT1D HTR1D CNS: locomotion, anxiety; vascular: cerebral vasoconstriction 5-(Nonyloxy)tryptamine [2], sumatriptan methiothepin, yohimbine, metergoline, ergotamine
5-HT1E HTR1E
5-HT1F HTR1F
5-HT2A HTR2A CNS: neuronal excitation, behavioural effects, learning, anxiety; smooth muscle: contraction, vasoconstriction / dilatation; platelets: aggregation α-methyl-5-HT, LSD (CNS), psilocin, DOI Nefazodone, trazodone, mirtazapine, ketanserin, cyproheptadine, pizotifen, LSD, atypical antipsychotics (PNS)
5-HT2B HTR2B stomach: contraction α-methyl-5-HT, LSD (CNS), DOI yohimbine, LSD (PNS)
5-HT2C HTR2C CNS: anxiety, choroid plexus: cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) secretion α-methyl-5-HT, agomelatine, LSD (CNS), psilocin, DOI mesulergine, agomelatine, LSD (PNS), fluoxetine
5-HT3 HTR3A, HTR3B CNS, PNS: neuronal excitation, anxiety, emesis 2-methyl-5-HT metoclopramide (high doses), renzapride, ondansetron, alosetron, mirtazapine, memantine
5-HT4 HTR4 GIT, CNS: neuronal excitation, gastrointestinal motility 5-methoxytryptamine, metoclopramide, renzapride, tegaserod GR113808
5-HT5A HTR5A CNS (cortex, hippocampus, cerebellum): unknown 5-carboxytryptamine;
LSD (partial agonist)[1]
unknown
5-HT6 HTR6 CNS: unknown LSD SB271046 [3]
5-HT7 HTR7 CNS, GIT, blood vessels: unknown 5-carboxytryptamine, LSD methiothepin, risperidone

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.

Therapeutic modulation

Various drugs are used to modulate the 5-HT system including some antidepressants, anxiolytics, antiemetics, antipsychotics and anti-migraine agents.
