Mechanisms underlying serotonergic excitation of callosal projection neurons
2017-10-03
Abstract excerpt
Serotonin (5-HT) selectively excites subpopulations of pyramidal neurons in the neocortex via activation of 5-HT 2A (2A) receptors coupled to G q subtype G-protein alpha subunits. Gq-mediated excitatory responses have been attributed primarily to suppression of potassium conductances, including those mediated by K V 7 potassium channels (i.e., the M-current), or activation of nonspecific cation conductances tha...
