Evaluation of a 5-HT2B receptor agonist in a murine model of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis
Abstract Degeneration of brainstem serotonin neurons has been demonstrated in ALS patients and mouse models and was found responsible for the development of spasticity. Consistent with involvement of central serotonin pathways, 5-HT2B receptor (5-HT2BR) was upregulated in microglia of ALS mice. Its...
