Neuro transmitter Receptor Subtype Location/Function/Effects /symptoms of excess or deficit if applicable Distribution (ie: CNS/PNS, GI, vascular) Drug classes that target this neurotransmitter or receptor Specific medications that target this neurotransmitter or receptor Glutamate AMPA α-Amino-3-hydroxy-5- methyl-4- isoxazolepropionic acid (AMPA)-type glutamate receptors (AMPARs) mediate the majority of fast excitatory synaptic transmission in the brain. AMPA receptors are abundant and widely distributed in the central nervous system. Hippocampus, outer layer of the cortex, basal ganglia, olfactory regions, lateral septum, and amygdala of the CNS are all enriched with GluA1, GluA2, and GluA subunits.

Serotonin 5-HT1D receptors, previously known as 5-HT1Dα receptors, are located primarily in the basal ganglia, hippocampus, cortex, spinal cord and vascular smooth muscle cells. 5-HT1D receptors are thought to be involved in neuropsychiatric disorders such as depression. 5ht 1e Function-unknown Serotonin 5-ht1E receptors are primarily located in the frontal cortex, caudate putamen, claustrum, hippocampus, and amygdala.
