Serotonin receptors, DNA repair, polyomaviruses, and Osteosarcomas

Osteosarcomas have been shown to be induced by x-rays.  Both polyomaviruses and X-rays have also been linked to papillary thyroid carcinomas.  Both of these cancers have been found to have abnormally high DNA levels.  Interestingly serotonin has been shown to have a protective effect against X-rays and that Serotonin receptor antagonists can repair DNA after UV Damage. Apparently with extremely high does of X-ray the DNA repair state spins out of control.  Polyomaviruses binding serotonin receptors apparently triggers DNA regeneration as it infects and if a carcinogen is present with the virus cancer results.

Polyomaviruses look like they are using serotonin receptors

serotonin was once considered an ganglioside?

Both serotonin and gangliosides are stored in the smooth ER

antibodies overlap for serotonin and gangliosides

Iron binding proteins have been shown to be regulated by serotonin receptors too

Osteosarcomas and increased iron?
