Serotonin 5-HT7 receptors are located primarily in the thalamus, hypothalamus and hippocampus. The function of these receptors includes the regulation of circadian rhythms, learning and memory and smooth muscle relaxation. The human 5-HT7 receptor gene has been localized to chromosome 10 (10q21-24).
