5 Hydroxytryptamine receptor or 5-HT is also known as Serotonin. It is an innate neurotransmitter made from tryptophan and is mostly found in the gastrointestinal tract. It regulates mood, appetite, digestion, circadian rhythm, learning, and internal temperature regulation. It can be an inhibitory or excitatory neurotransmitter released into the synaptic space. It can bind to receptors on the postsynaptic neuron or can take back into the presynaptic neuron via Serotonin reuptake transporters. Hydroxytryptamine receptors are classified into seven different subfamilies (5-HT1, 5-HT2, 5-HT3, etc.) by signalling mechanisms and homology of structure. All 5-HT receptors are known to have G-protein-linked pathways except for the 5-HT3 receptor, which serve as an ion channel.
There is evidence of a link between the gut and the brain that is somehow mediated by hydroxytryptamine. Among the most likely mechanisms of intercommunication, immune system cells may be mediators that respond to 5-HT due to the expression of some of its receptors. It is known that different cell types of the innate immune system, including monocytes, dendritic cells, and mastocytes, express components of the serotoninergic machinery, e.g., TPH, serotonin transporters, and serotonin receptors. Accordingly, it is possible to generate 5-HT and respond to it. A similar trend is found in the adaptive immune system in cells such as T and B lymphocytes. Almost any blood cell, except erythrocytes, expresses enzymes related to 5-HT handling, transport, and serotonin receptors. Overall, it is assumed that the compound regulates inflammation to chemotaxis.
