This volume provides an up-to-date and comprehensive overview of the anatomy, physiology, and basic and applied pharmacology of CNS serotonin neurons and serotonin receptor subtypes required for understanding the role(s) of serotonin in brain function and in behavior. The book comprises 28 chapters on various aspects of CNS serotonin neurons, such as their development, plasticity and transduction mechanisms, their structural and functional components involved in synaptic transmission, their physiological properties, their role in behavior, their putative involvement in neuropsychiatric diseases, and their role as targets of drugs used in the treatment of CNS disorders.
In 1966, Vittorio Erspamer, the editor of the first monograph within the Handbook of Experimental Pharmacology series that dealt with 5-hydroxy tryptamine (Vol. XIX) wrote in the Preface: "In a decade of intense and dedicated work, an immense amount of experimental data has been collected, the significance of which . . . has spread into all fields of biology and medi cine . . . ". Three decades later, a dramatic further increase in our knowledge of all neuroscientific aspects of the serotoninergic system in the CNS has been achieved, and we are witnessing persisting interest in the biology of serotonin of scientists working in various basic biomedical and clinical disciplines. The scientific advance was made possible by significant improvements in analytical and morphological technologies of high sensitivity and cellular/subcellular resolution (e. g. , patch clamp techniques, in vivo microdialysis, electrophysi ological recording techniques, quantitative ligand autoradiography, immuno histochemistry, cytochemistry, catalytic enzyme histochemistry, and PET / SPECT techniques) and in molecular biology (e. g. , in situ hybridization, PCR cloning, DNA transfection studies, and targeted gene disruption). Particular progress has been made in the anatomy, physiology, and pharmacoogy of ' serotoninergic neurons and their modulatory role in brain functions, in s ~roto nin receptors and their transduction mechanisms, and in the potential role of serotonin in neuropsychiatric diseases, such as eating disorders, antisocial personality disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorder, seasonal affective disor der, and major depression.
