Hi, this may be the wrong place to be posting this, but i feel i'm more
likely to receive an intelligent answer here than in some other
communities i've seen...



...anyway, does anyone have a good source for information on serotonin subtypes?



Because once upon a time people asked how drugs work, and science told
us neurotransmitters and receptors. OK, well, then we found out
most trips work through the serotonin receptors. Fair
enough. Even more recent is the theory that all/most LSD-like
trips work their action through the 5-HT2A/2C receptor subtypes (based
on evidence that action at this subtype is shared by virtually every
chemical eliciting this shared response). So naturally i read
this and want to know everything there is to know about receptor
subtypes...but the only conclusion i've come to is that science doesn't
seem to know very much about them yet either.



Like i've read blurbs here and there that say stuff like that the 5-HT3
subtypes are somehow related to nausea but i don't even know if it went
into detail whether it was the agonists or antagonists which
prevented/caused the nausea



So yea, any information would be nice. How many different
subtypes have we located so far? What are the effects of firing
serotonin at these subtypes? Have we been able to map out the
chemical structures of these subtypes yet? Is there a good place
to find the affinities of various trips across all the subtypes?



If anyone can help it would be greatly appreciated,



Thanks,

ethacetin

Great question. I'd definitively be interested in such a list.

5HT3 antagonists prevent nausea.

^^i have heard that there are now over 20 different serotonin receptor subtypes, although the topography is still not well defined.

but keep in mind, serotonergic transmission is just one of the many systems involved in action of the drugs.

Let's start a list of all receptor subtypes for future reference. Or if someone can find this, that would be great.

ok, here's a try for serotonin, from 5-HT Receptors and their Ligands, Tocris Reviews, 2003. they say there are at least 14 members. they are also claiming recent identification of naturally occurring polymorphyc variants for the subtypes, which would increase this number significantly.

We'll need a complete list of neurotransmitters to begin with:


Phenethylamine
Acetylcholine
Dopamine
Serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine)
Melatonin (N-acetyl-5-methoxytryptamine)
Muscarine
Epinephrine (adrenaline)
Norepinephrine (noradrenaline)
Aspartate
Glutamate
Adenosine
GABA (gabba aminobutryic acid)
Oxytocin
Vasopressin
Anandamide
Glycine
Histamine


Are there any others?

Opioid peptides perhaps?



While I was searching for nuerotransmitters I came across this link http://www.gpcr.org/7tm/multali/multali.html. It's a lil too much on the heavy side for me to digest, but I figured it might do someone on these boards some good.
