Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: It has been suggested that noradrenergic system abnormalities are involved in suicide. Postmortem brain studies have shown that molecular and functional alterations in alpha2A-adrenergic receptor-induced signal transduction are associated with suicide and depression. Recently, a singl...
