Tapping into 5-HT<sub>3</sub> Receptors to Modify Metabolic and Immune Responses

5-hydroxytryptamine type 3 (5-HT<sub>3</sub>) receptors are ligand gated ion channels, which clearly distinguish their mode of action from the other G-protein coupled 5-HT or serotonin receptors. 5-HT<sub>3</sub> receptors are well established targets for emesis and gastroint...

description 5-hydroxytryptamine type 3 (5-HT<sub>3</sub>) receptors are ligand gated ion channels, which clearly distinguish their mode of action from the other G-protein coupled 5-HT or serotonin receptors. 5-HT<sub>3</sub> receptors are well established targets for emesis and gastrointestinal mobility and are used as adjunct targets in treating schizophrenia. However, the distribution of these receptors is wider than the nervous system and there is potential that these additional sites can be targeted to modulate inflammatory and/or metabolic conditions.

These advances, combined with insights into clinical relevance of mutations in genes encoding 5-HT<sub>3</sub> subunits and increasing understanding of their implications in patient’s predisposition to diseases and response to the treatment, open new avenues for personalized precision medicine. In this review, we recap on the current status of 5-HT<sub>3</sub> receptor-based therapies using a biochemical and physiological perspective.
