| Background | Serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT) exerts its many physiological effects through 13 distinct receptor subtypes in humans. These subtypes fall into seven structurally-defined classes (5-HT1 to 5-HT7). 5-HT2B receptors are expressed in the liver, kidney, lung, heart, pancreas, spleen, brain, spinal cord, gastrointestinal tract, placenta, and coronary and pulmonary arteries. It has also been reported in embryonic mouse heart. This receptor has been used as a target for developing drugs to treat migraine, anxiety, and irritable bowel syndrome. |

| Safety Considerations |
The following safety precautions should be observed. 1. Use pipette aids to prevent ingestion and keep aerosols down to a minimum. 2. No eating, drinking or smoking while handling the stable line. 3. Wash hands after handling the stable line and before leaving the lab. 4. Decontaminate work surface with disinfectant or 70% ethanol before and after working with stable cells. 5. All waste should be considered hazardous. 6. Dispose of all liquid waste after each experiment and treat with bleach. |
