Serotonin Receptors Flashcards
where do seratonergic neurons innervate
forebrain
what is the function of the caudal raphe nuclei
mediate sensory, motor and autonomic functions of 5-HT
what do seratonergic lesions lead to
deficits in food intake, reproductive behavior, anxiety, learning and memory
when does the activity in the dorsal raphe nuclei illustrate steady firing
while awake and increases with repetitive motor activity
5-HT binding capacity is tended to correlate with ___
spirituality
