TL;DR: Examination of 5-hydroxytryptamine 2B receptor expression and characterization of extracellular matrix (ECM) components and the presence of valvulopathy in the mitral valve-leaflet of Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats suggested a role for 5HT2BR in the pathogenesis of SMV in SD rats, but additional research is needed to confirm this.
