abstract = {Present knowledge about the serotonergic system in
birdbrains is very limited, although the pigeon was used as
an animal model in various studies focused on the behavioral
effects of serotonergic transmission. In the mammalian brain
the 5-HT(1A) receptor is the most widespread serotonin
receptor type, and is involved in various functions. Less is
known about the distribution of 5-HT(1A) receptors in the
avian species. Therefore, we analyzed serotonin 5-HT(1A)
receptor binding sites in the pigeon brain using
quantitative in vitro receptor autoradiography with the
selective radioligand
[³H]-8-hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino)tetralin
([³H]-8-OH-DPAT). The receptor is differentially
distributed throughout the pigeon brain. High levels of
5-HT(1A) receptors are found in the nucleus pretectalis
(PT). Moderate densities were detected in the tectum, as
well as in the telencephalic nidopallium and hyperpallium.
Very low levels were found in the hippocampal formation, the
amygdaloid complex, the basal ganglia, and several thalamic
nuclei. Furthermore, local variations in 5-HT(1A) receptor
densities support the concept of further subdivisions of the
entopallium. The regional distribution patterns of 5-HT(1A)
receptors mostly display a similar distribution as found in
homologue brain structures of mammals.},
