Regulation of human umbilical artery contractility by different serotonin and histamine receptors

We studied the role of several serotonin (5-HT) and histamine receptors in the regulation of human umbilical artery (HUA) contractility. Among the 5-HT agonists used, only the 5-HT2A and 5HT1B/D agonists contracts HUA. The 5-HT-induced contractions were fully inhibited by ketanserin (5-HT2A antagoni...
