Target type: biologicalprocess
Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of the regulated release of serotonin. [GOC:ef]
Serotonin, a neurotransmitter with diverse functions in the nervous system, is meticulously regulated to ensure proper signaling. Its secretion is a complex process involving multiple steps, starting with synthesis within presynaptic neurons. Tryptophan, an essential amino acid, is taken up by neurons and converted to 5-hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP) by the enzyme tryptophan hydroxylase (TPH). 5-HTP is then decarboxylated by aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase (AADC) to form serotonin (5-HT). Serotonin is stored in synaptic vesicles, awaiting release upon neuronal stimulation. The arrival of an action potential at the presynaptic terminal triggers a cascade of events leading to serotonin release. Calcium ions (Ca2+) influx into the presynaptic terminal through voltage-gated calcium channels. Elevated intracellular Ca2+ levels promote the fusion of synaptic vesicles with the presynaptic membrane, a process facilitated by proteins like synaptotagmin and SNAREs. This fusion event releases serotonin into the synaptic cleft, the space between the presynaptic and postsynaptic neurons. After release, serotonin interacts with receptors on postsynaptic neurons, initiating downstream signaling pathways. The duration and intensity of serotonin signaling are tightly controlled by mechanisms that regulate its reuptake and degradation. Serotonin transporter (SERT) proteins on presynaptic neurons actively transport serotonin back into the presynaptic terminal, removing it from the synaptic cleft. This process, known as reuptake, limits the duration of serotonin signaling. Once re-internalized, serotonin can be repackaged into synaptic vesicles for future release or degraded by the enzyme monoamine oxidase (MAO). MAO breaks down serotonin, reducing its concentration and terminating its signaling. The regulation of serotonin secretion is finely tuned through a complex interplay of various factors, including neuronal activity, neurotransmitter levels, and the expression and function of proteins involved in synthesis, storage, release, reuptake, and degradation. This intricate control ensures that serotonin signaling occurs with precision and efficiency, contributing to diverse physiological and psychological functions.'

It is a second generation antipsychotic used in the treatment of psychiatric disorders like schizophrenia. Clozapine: A tricylic dibenzodiazepine, classified as an atypical antipsychotic agent. It binds several types of central nervous system receptors, and displays a unique pharmacological profile. Clozapine is a serotonin antagonist, with strong binding to 5-HT 2A/2C receptor subtype. It also displays strong affinity to several dopaminergic receptors, but shows only weak antagonism at the dopamine D2 receptor, a receptor commonly thought to modulate neuroleptic activity. Agranulocytosis is a major adverse effect associated with administration of this agent. | benzodiazepine; N-arylpiperazine; N-methylpiperazine; organochlorine compound | adrenergic antagonist; dopaminergic antagonist; EC 3.4.21.26 (prolyl oligopeptidase) inhibitor; environmental contaminant; GABA antagonist; histamine antagonist; muscarinic antagonist; second generation antipsychotic; serotonergic antagonist; xenobiotic |
| olanzapine | olanzapine : A benzodiazepine that is 10H-thieno[2,3-b][1,5]benzodiazepine substituted by a methyl group at position 2 and a 4-methylpiperazin-1-yl group at position 4. Olanzapine: A benzodiazepine derivative that binds SEROTONIN RECEPTORS; MUSCARINIC RECEPTORS; HISTAMINE H1 RECEPTORS; ADRENERGIC ALPHA-1 RECEPTORS; and DOPAMINE RECEPTORS. It is an antipsychotic agent used in the treatment of SCHIZOPHRENIA; BIPOLAR DISORDER; and MAJOR DEPRESSIVE DISORDER; it may also reduce nausea and vomiting in patients undergoing chemotherapy. | benzodiazepine; N-arylpiperazine; N-methylpiperazine | antiemetic; dopaminergic antagonist; histamine antagonist; muscarinic antagonist; second generation antipsychotic; serotonergic antagonist; serotonin uptake inhibitor |
