Bold fonts indicate ≥50% displacement of radioligands from the respective 5-HTR. Each experiment was conducted in duplicate. [3H]8-OH-DPAT, [125I]CYP (+ 30 μM isoproterenol), and [3H]imipramine were used to label 5-HT1ARs, 5-HT1BRs, and the 5-HT transporter, respectively. [125I](±)DOI was used to label 5-HT2A(h), 5-HT2B(h), and 5-HT2C(h) receptors.
