More about the book
This monograph presents wide-ranging views on the roles of serotonin in various functions, such as sleep, pain, and behavior, as well as new developments in serotonin research. Placing major emphasis on serotonin receptors, it examines the progress made in scientific understanding in the field, including coverage of specific receptors linked to the utilization of inositol phosphate(s) as a second messenger, peripheral serotonin receptors, the production and clinical significance of targeted antagonists to these receptors, and evidence supporting the presence of at least five types of serotonin receptors in the mammalian nervous system, including various experimental strategies and findings on their functional significance.
