Summary

5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) causes hypothermia through the 5-HT(7) receptor. Oleamide induces hypothermia via a separate pathway, though it can also interact with the 5-HT(7) receptor.

G-protein Coupled Receptors01:21

G-protein Coupled Receptors

G-protein coupled receptors are ligand binding receptors that indirectly affect changes in the cell. The actual receptor is a single polypeptide that transverses the cell membrane seven times creating intracellular and extracellular loops. The extracellular loops create a ligand specific pocket which binds to neurotransmitters or hormones. The intracellular loops holds onto the G-protein.
