Serotonin (5-HT) regulates neurodevelopment and behavior. Whereas central 5-HT is synthesized by tryptophan hydroxylase (TPH)-2, the TPH1 isoform produces 5-HT peripherally. Although these systems are anatomically segregated, TPH1 gene polymorphisms have been linked to neuropsychiatric vulnerability, suggesting that pe...

Serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine; 5-HT) is a critical neuromodulatory morphogen-like signal that governs prenatal cortical circuit assembly, and altered 5-HT signaling is implicated in a wide range of psychiatric disorders. Yet the structural consequences of lifelong 5-HT imbalance during the initial blueprinting phase...

It is demonstrated that 5-HT depletion disrupts behavioral neurodevelopmental trajectories via interactions between genetic, environmental, and ecological factors, highlighting the importance of accounting for sex, environment, and developmental timing in translational research.
