pubmed:abstractText |
Extensive studies have ascribed a role for the central 5-HT3 receptor in the modulation of behaviour. Much of the work stems from the actions of potent and selective 5-HT3 receptor antagonists; these agents reduce mesolimbic dopamine initiated hyperactivity, release suppressed behaviour, reduce the reinforcing properties and withdrawal symptoms of drugs of abuse, enhance cognitive performance and modulate appetite. This article reviews the preclinical and clinical evidence implicating the 5-HT3 receptor in these indications and discusses the potential neurochemical mechanisms underlying the behavioural changes.
