CUI: C0011570
Disease: Mental Depression
Mental Depression
0.400 Biomarker disease BEFREE The development of drugs that specifically target 5-HT2C receptors will allow for better understanding of their involvement in the pathophysiology of psychiatric disorders including schizophrenia, anxiety, and depression. 26739950 2016
CUI: C0011570
Disease: Mental Depression
Mental Depression
0.400 Biomarker disease PSYGENET The melatonin MT1/MT2 agonist and 5-HT(2C) antagonist, agomelatine, which is effective in the short- and long-term treatment of depression, exemplifies the former approach, while evidence-based polypharmacy is illustrated by the adjunctive use of second-generation antipsychotics with serotonin reuptake inhibitors for treatment of resistant depression. 23719026 2014
CUI: C0011570
Disease: Mental Depression
Mental Depression
0.400 Biomarker disease BEFREE Activity of the x-linked serotonin 5-HTR2C receptor has also been shown to be associated with depression and with clinical response to antidepressant medications. 25514629 2014
CUI: C0011570
Disease: Mental Depression
Mental Depression
0.400 Biomarker disease PSYGENET Association of 5-HTR2A and 5-HTR2C serotonin receptor gene polymorphisms with depression risk in patients with coronary heart disease. 24770757 2014

Disease: Mental Depression
Mental Depression
0.400 Biomarker disease BEFREE In conclusion, 5-HT2CR signaling enhancement and the subsequent activation of the CRF neuron were involved in novelty-induced hypophagia in aged mice, and the 5-HT2CR antagonists offer a promising therapeutic option for depression. 23583320 2013

Disease: Mental Depression
Mental Depression
0.400 Biomarker disease PSYGENET These findings suggest that activation of 5-HT(2C)R in discrete brain regions contributes to specific anxiety- and depression-like behaviors and may indicate potential brain sites involved in the anxiolytic and antidepressant effects of exercise. 23049953 2012
CUI: C0011570
Disease: Mental Depression
Mental Depression
0.400 Biomarker disease PSYGENET These data constitute the first in vivo demonstration of a role for 5-HT(2C)R mRNA editing in anxiety- and depression-related behaviors. 20624407 2010
CUI: C0011570
Disease: Mental Depression
Mental Depression
0.400 Biomarker disease BEFREE The new antidepressant agomelatine is the first melatonergic antidepressant with an innovative mode of action: it is a melatonergic MT(1), MT(2) receptor agonist and 5-HT(2c) antagonist, and is able to restore the internal clock, which is profoundly disturbed in depression, thus being efficacious in major depressive disorders. 19708722 2009
CUI: C0011570
Disease: Mental Depression
Mental Depression
0.400 Biomarker disease BEFREE Alterations in the constitutive activity of 5-HT(2A) and 5-HT(2C) receptor systems could be involved in the mechanisms underlying anxiety and depression or exploited for therapeutic benefit. 18772038 2008
CUI: C0011570
Disease: Mental Depression
Mental Depression
0.400 Biomarker disease BEFREE In the present review, the pathopharmacological significance of 5-HT2CR in special reference to RNA editing of receptors is reviewed and discussed from the aspect of development of novel therapeutics for depression. 16799258 2006

Mental Depression
0.400 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE Based on the literature, we hypothesized that the 5-HT2A and 5-HT2C receptor polymorphisms would be associated with agitation/aggression and psychosis and the 5-HTTPR or 5-HTTVNTR polymorphisms, with agitation/aggression or depression and anxiety. 15313842 2004
