Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: There is evidence indicating that serotonin uptake and density of 5-HT2A receptors are altered in brain regions of depressed suicide victims and in platelets of depressed suicidal subjects. The present investigation tested the hypothesis that these changes in the serotonergic system in depressed suicide victims are trait rather than state markers and associated with a polymorphism in respective...
