Abstract
Serotonin or 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) is a well-established monoamine neurotransmitter in the central nervous system (CNS). The discovery of 5-HT dates as far back as 1868 and can be traced to its presence in the blood and in the gastrointestinal tract [1]. Its well-known biological functions include modulating cognition, sleep, emotion, learning, memory, and numerous physiological processes. 5-HT is primarily found in the enteric nervous system located in the gastrointestinal tract [2], where it
