    Author: Staroń J, Bugno R, Hogendorf AS, Bojarski AJ.
    Journal: Expert Opin Ther Pat; 2018 Sep; 28(9):679-689. PubMed ID: 30124346.
    Abstract:
    INTRODUCTION: 5-HT1AR was one of the first discovered serotonin receptors and is one of the most thoroughly studied. Dysfunctions associated with 5-HT1AR neurotransmission are linked to several psychiatric disorders, including anxiety, depression, and movement disorders. AREAS COVERED: The current review covers patent literature published between January 2012 and May 2018. Queries were performed on Espacenet, SciFinder, clinicaltrials.gov, pharmacodia.com, and the websites of pharmaceutical companies. EXPERT OPINION: Several novel therapeutic applications have been proposed for 5-HT1AR ligands, i.e. prostate cancer treatment, gastrointestinal and cardiopulmonary disorders, facilitation of urination and defecation, and L-DOPA-induced dyskinesia. Interestingly, no patent application has been filed by big pharma companies, while numerous researches are being conducted in smaller companies and academia.
