The discovery, structure, and function of 5-HTR1E serotonin receptor.
Cell Communication and Signaling : CCS 2023 September 19
Serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT) is a unique neurotransmitter which can regulate various biological processes by activating thirteen different receptors. These serotonin receptors are divided into seven different classes based on their structure and functions. Since these receptors co-express in various tissue and cell types and share the same ligand (5-HT), it has been a challenge for the researchers to define specific pathway and separate physiological role for each of these serotonin receptors. Though the evidence of operational diversity of these receptors is continuously emerging, much work remains to be done. 5-HTR1E is a member of 5-HT1 receptor family which belongs to G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs). Even after three decades since its discovery, 5-HTR1E remains the least explored serotonin receptor. Very high similarity with another family member (5-HTR1F) and its non-existence in mice or rats makes 5-HTR1E a difficult target to study. Despite these challenges, recent findings on the role of 5-HTR1E in neuroprotection and diseases such as cancer, have excited many researchers to explore this receptor in detail. Here, we provide the first review of 5-HTR1E, since its discovery in 1989 to 2023. We highlight the structural and functional characteristics of this important serotonin receptor in detail and propose future directions in developing 5-HTR1E as a drug target. Video Abstract.
