Molecular and Pharmacological Characterization of Serotonin 5-HT2α and 5-HT7 Receptors in the Salivary Glands of the Blowfly Calliphora vicina

Molecular and Pharmacological Characterization of Serotonin 5-HT2α and 5-HT7 Receptors in the Salivary Glands of the Blowfly Calliphora vicina

Secretion in blowfly (Calliphora vicina) salivary glands is stimulated by the biogenic amine serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT), which activates both inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP3)/Ca2+ and cyclic adenosine 3′,5′-monophosphate (cAMP) signalling pathways in the secretory cells. In order to c...
