Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: As a key player in modulating both human physiological and behavioural functions including anxiety, perception and in particular appetite, serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT) is likely to be involved in the aetiology of eating disorders. Studies showing serotonin receptor type 3 (5-HT3) receptors to mediate food intake depression (anorexic response) have triggered our interest in investigating the...
