Free-to-read version at publisher website
Description
In this chapter, we will review the current literature underlying the essential role played by the 5-HT2B receptor in the regulation of serotonin and dopamine neurotransmission, by first focusing on its involvement in the psychostimulant effects of the club-drug Ecstasy, then by further describing its contribution to the psychostimulant effects of amphetamine, and finally, by presenting its role in the psychostimulant effects of cocaine. Throughout this review, we will compare the current findings in mice and rats with an emphasis on interspecies discrepancies. to conclude, we will discuss the potential pharmacotherapeutic strategies for the treatment of psychostimulant addiction.
Impact and interest:
Citation counts are sourced monthly from Scopus and Web of Science® citation databases.
These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science® generally from 1980 onwards.
Citations counts from the Google Scholar™ indexing service can be viewed at the linked Google Scholar™ search.
