1 Corticosterone strongly increases the affinity of dorsal raphe 5-HT1A receptors. Corticosterone 5-hydroxytryptamine receptor 1A Rattus norvegicus
2 Corticosterone increases 5-HT1A autoreceptor agonist affinity (+90%, p<0.001) in adrenalectomized rats. Corticosterone 5-hydroxytryptamine receptor 1A Rattus norvegicus
3 Dorsal raphe glucocorticoid receptors activation by corticosterone may therefore lead to an increased signalling of 5-HT1A autoreceptors that may become counteracted by galanin receptor activation. Corticosterone 5-hydroxytryptamine receptor 1A Rattus norvegicus
