Researchers uncovered how estrogen heightens gut sensitivity in females by activating PYY-secreting L-cells, which stimulate ...

Scientists have uncovered how serotonergic neurons in larval zebrafish process visual information tied to movement to determine when and how much serotonin to release.

Janelia researchers are decoding how neurons carry out computations carefully calibrated to an animal's movement and ...

In the present study, the LD was employed as indicator of the central serotonergic activity in humans to test the following hypothesis: A low concentration of serum BDNF is associated with a high ...

Abstract: In order to improve brain dysfunction such as mental disease, it is necessary to clarify the mechanism of activity in the brain. To clarify the relationship between the brain region and the ...

Protein S activity is a test to judge your risk of blood clots. Blood clots that form in the veins are dangerous. Protein S is a substance that controls the blood clotting mechanism and prevents ...

You're not getting the same visual or auditory hallucinations that you might see with serotonergic drugs (drugs that impact the transmission of serotonin, like psilocybin or LSD.) You're not ...

In this study, the team comprehensively mapped serotonergic activity and investigated how serotonin influences behavior. They first determined the functions of the worms’ six serotonin receptors by ...

The team in addition used their ability to track all neuronal activity (based on calcium fluctuations) and all behaviors to investigate how the serotonergic neuron NSM affected other cells ...

1 In view of the evidence linking variation in 5-HT function with several biological and behavioral risk factors for cardiovascular disease, the current investigation tested the hypothesis that ...
