The role of serotonin in impulsive aggression, suicide, and homicide in adolescents and adults: a literature review.

International journal of adolescent medicine and health - 1 May 2015

Glick Amy R

Abstract excerpt

This is a literature review discussing previous studies on the associations between impulsive aggression and the serotonergic system in adults, adolescents, and children. The review demonstrates that there is a clear association between low cerebrospinal fluid serotonin and impulsive aggression. However, studies on neurotransmitter receptor profiles, functional imaging, genetics, and epigenetics reviewed in this...
