This book provides a comprehensive, up-to-date review of the
distribution, pharmacology and physiology of central 5-hydroxytryptamine
(5-HT)4 receptors. The 5-HT receptor subtypes exhibit a unique
pharmacology, distribution and function, of which the 5-HT4 receptor has
been one of the most intensively studied in recent years, both from a
basic research standpoint and as a target for novel therapeutics.
