the hypothesis that 5-hydroxytryptamine ( 5-ht ) neurons and/or receptors are involved in the mechanism of action of hallucinogens is supported by the fact that intraventricular administration of the neurotoxin 5,7-dihydroxytryptamine ( 5,7-dht ) selectively destroys central 5-ht neurons in the brain and potentiates the behavioral effects of lysergic acid diethylamide ( lsd ) , 2,5-dimethoxy-4-methylamphetamine ( dom ) and mescaline .
