Abstract excerpt
Serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT) is a neurotransmitter that mediates a wide range of sensory, motor, and cortical functions by activating multiple 5-HT receptor subtypes. In the present study we performed a systematic mutation scan of the complete coding region of the 5-HT5A receptor to explore its variability in the general population. Investigating 46 unrelated healthy subjects by single-strand...
