Serotonin Receptor 7 Subunit (5-HT7 Receptor)

Target
5-HT7 Receptor
Molecular classification
G protein-coupled receptor, GPCR, Class A rhodopsin-like receptor, Receptor
01

Overview

The serotonin receptor 7 subunit (5-HT7 receptor) is a G protein-coupled receptor activated by serotonin. It plays a role in various physiological processes, including circadian rhythms, mood regulation, learning and memory, and gastrointestinal motility. It is a therapeutic target for neuropsychiatric and gastrointestinal disorders.
