A recent alternative hypothesis suggests that depression results from alterations in receptor activity due to formation of homoreceptor and heteroreceptor complexes involving receptor types including 5HT1A, 5HT7, galR1, and fibroblast growth factor receptor 1 (FGFR1) (Borroto-Escuela et al., 2010, 2012; Renner et al., 2012). Here, HTR7 is linked to depressive symptom measurement.
