5-hydroxytryptamine (serotonin) receptor 5A, also known as HTR5A, is a protein which in humans is encoded by the HTR5A gene.[1][2]

Contents

[edit] Function

The gene described in this record is a member of 5-hydroxytryptamine receptor family and encodes a multi-pass membrane protein that functions as a receptor for 5-hydroxytryptamine and couples to G proteins, negatively influencing cAMP levels via Gi and Go.[3] This protein has been shown to function in part through the regulation of intracellular Ca2+ mobilization.[1]

Rodents have been shown to possess two functional 5-HT5 receptor subtypes, 5-HT5A and 5-HT5B,[4] however while humans possess a gene coding for the 5-HT5B subtype, its coding sequence is interrupted by stop codons making the gene non-functional, and so only the 5-HT5A subtype is expressed in human brain.[5]

[edit] Clinical signficance

The neurotransmitter serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT) has been implicated in a wide range of psychiatric conditions and also has vasoconstrictive and vasodilatory effects.[1]

[edit] Selective Ligands

Few highly selective ligands are commercially available for the 5-HT5A receptor. When selective activation of this receptor is desired in scientific research, the non-selective serotonin receptor agonist 5-Carboxamidotryptamine can be used in conjunction with selective antagonists for its other targets (principally 5-HT1A, 5-HT1B, 5-HT1D and 5-HT7). Research in this area is ongoing.[6][7]

[edit] Agonists

  • Another ligand which has been recently disclosed is shown below, claimed be a selective 5-HT5A agonist with Ki = 124 nM.[9]
