Cellular effects of serotonin in the CNS

Published 2020 in Handbook of Behavioral Neuroscience

ABSTRACT

Abstract Serotonergic neurons innervate the entire neuroaxis, thus allowing serotonin to regulate the function of most CNS neurons. Work during the past two decades has made clear that the specific form taken by this regulation is dependent on the complement of serotonin receptors expressed by each cell. This general principle is now being extended to different cell types within defined neuronal networks to understand how serotonin regulates network function. In this chapter we review progress along this front in two intensely studied areas, the hippocampus and the cerebral cortex, and highlight areas of progress while noting outstanding issues that await elucidation.
