Neurosci Lett . 2022 Aug; 788:136836. PMID: 35963476
Psychedelics, also known as classical hallucinogens, affect processes related to perception, cognition and sensory processing mostly via the serotonin 5-HT receptor (5-HTR). This class of psychoactive substances, which includes lysergic...

ACS Chem Neurosci . 2016 Jul; 7(9):1292-9. PMID: 27385190
Several pharmacophore models have been proposed for 5-HT2A serotonin receptor antagonists. These typically consist of two aromatic/hydrophobic moieties separated by a given distance from each other, and from a basic...

Pflugers Arch . 2016 Jan; 468(5):775-93. PMID: 26780666
We previously reported that co-expression of the Gi-coupled metabotropic glutamate receptor 2 (mGlu2R) and the Gq-coupled serotonin (5-HT) 2A receptor (2AR) in Xenopus oocytes (Fribourg et al. Cell 147:1011-1023, 2011)...
