SR-5A (P241) polyclonal antibody

Serotonin actions are mediated by receptors that influence the biochemistry of depression, anxiety, sexuality and appetite. Rat SR-5B is present in serotonergic neurons in dorsal raphe (DR) and central superior nucleus (CS, median raphe nucleus). DR cell bodies showing SR-5B mRNA expression are abundant in the medial portions of the nucleus. CS coexpression of SR-5B receptor mRNA with Serotonin transporter mRNA is high in the intermediate portions of the nucleus. Serotonin receptors include SR-1–7 (5HT1–7). Subtypes within the SR-1 group include SR-1A, -1B, -1D, -1E and -1F. Subtypes within the SR-2 group include SR-2A, -2B and -2C. Subtypes within the SR-5 group include SR-5A and -5B.
