Psychoactives April 10, 2025 Lumír Ondřej Hanuš, А. О. Шпаков

The history of cannabis research spans centuries, with a focus on isolating and understanding its active compounds. Although plants like opium and coca yielded active alkaloids relatively early, cannabis posed unique challenges due to its active substances existing in oily mixtures that were difficult to isolate.

Control of Serotonergic Function in Medial Prefrontal Cortex by Serotonin-2A Receptors through a Glutamate-Dependent Mechanism

Journal of Neuroscience December 15, 2001 Raúl Martín‐Ruiz, M. Victoria Puig, Pau Celada et al. 335 citations

We examined the in vivo effects of the hallucinogen 4-iodo-2,5-dimethoxyamphetamine (DOI). DOI suppressed the firing rate of 7 of 12 dorsal raphe (DR) serotonergic (5-HT) neurons and partially inhibited the rest (ED(50) = 20 microg/kg, i.v.), an effect reversed by M100907 (5-HT(2A) antagonist) and picrotoxinin (GABA(A) antagonist). DOI (1 mg/kg, s.c.) reduced the 5-HT release in medial...
