CSF contains insulin/IGFs and 5-HT [ 48 ] in concentrations high enough to activate their respective receptors in choroid plexus, suggesting that this signaling mechanism may occur in vivo . It has been suggested that 5-5HT 2C receptors in choroid plexus may be tonically activated, due to CSF 5-HT concentrations near the EC 50 , thus tonically inhibiting CSF production.
