The Structural Determinants for α<sub>1</sub>-Adrenergic/Serotonin Receptors Activity among Phenylpiperazine-Hydantoin Derivatives

Several studies confirmed the reciprocal interactions between adrenergic and serotoninergic systems and the influence of these phenomena on the pathogenesis of anxiety. Hence, searching for chemical agents with a multifunctional pharmacodynamic profile may bring highly effective therapy for CNS diso...
