Psilocybin is a naturally occurring psychedelic compound found in certain species of mushrooms.
It is converted in the body to psilocin, which interacts with serotonin receptors in the brain to produce altered states of consciousness, including visual and auditory hallucinations, changes in perception, and a sense of expanded consciousness.
Anorexia nervosa is a severe psychiatric disorder.
A different subtype of serotonin receptor was responsible for the pro-cognitive effects of psilocybin than previously thought.
The 5 -HT2A receptor is known to be involved in the psychedelic effects of the psychedelic.
This finding suggests that its role in cognitive flexibility may be less central compared to the 5HT1A receptor.
