[Serotonergic regulation of the immune system].
The paper presents evidence on the important contribution of the peripheral serotonin system in the process of immunomodulation. The main components of the system - serotonin, receptors and serotonin transporter - are described. Possible mechanisms of serotonin regulation of activity of immune cells - lymphocytes, macrophages and dendritic cells - are reviewed.
