Stimulation of 5-HT2A receptors recovers sensory responsiveness in acute spinal neonatal rats.

abstract：:Substantial evidence suggests that pharmacological manipulations of neural serotonin pathways influence ingestive behaviors. Despite the known role of the nucleus accumbens in directing appetitive and consummatory behavior, there has been little examination of the influences that serotonin receptors may play in modula...
