Diminished brain 5-HT transporter binding in major depression: a positron emission tomography study with [11C]DASB.
BACKGROUND: The serotonin transporter (5-HTT) plays a critical role in the regulation of serotonin neurotransmission and has been implicated in the pathophysiology of major depression. In a previous positron emission tomography study, we found no difference in brain 5-HTT binding between unmedicated...
