Serotonin in retina.

Serotonin in retina. Biochimie. 2018 Nov 09;: Authors: Masson J Abstract The expression of serotonin (5-HT) in the retina was first reported in the sixties. The detection of vesicular monoamine transporter and serotonin receptors in several retinal cells confirm that 5-HT is playing a neuromodulatory role in this structure. Whereas signaling pathways activated by 5-HT receptor binding has been poorly investigated so far, numerous data demonstrated that 5-HT is involved in retinal physiology, retinal physiopathology and photoreceptor survival.
