HTR2B / Unconjugated /
Product Details
| Description | 5-HT2B, a Serotonin Receptor, activates phospholipase C upon binding serotonin, which results in a rise in intracellular calcium. It is known that 5-HT2B regulates cardiovascular function during development and in adulthood; mice lacking functional 5-HT2B receptors died of heart defects during gestation or neonatally, and adult mutant mice displayed cardiopathy, including myocyte disarray and ventricular dilation. | |

About HTR2B
This gene encodes one of the several different receptors for 5-hydroxytryptamine (serotonin) that belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family. Serotonin is a biogenic hormone that functions as a neurotransmitter, a hormone, and a mitogen. Serotonin receptors mediate many of the central and peripheral physiologic functions of serotonin, including regulation of cardiovascular functions and impulsive behavior. Population and family-based analyses of a minor allele (glutamine-to-stop substitution, designated Q20*) which blocks expression of this protein, and knockout studies in mice, suggest a role for this gene in impulsivity. However, other factors, such as elevated testosterone levels, may also be involved. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2016]
