BACKGROUND: Several lines of evidence suggest a clear relationship between serotonin
(5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT) hypoactivity and suicidal behavior across several psychiatric …

Serotonin1A (5-HT1A) and serotonin2A (5-HT2A) receptors in the brain have been
implicated in the pathophysiology of suicide. Brain samples were collected at autopsy from …

Disturbances in the serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT) system constitute the
neurobiological abnormality most consistently associated with suicide. This abnormality …

Objective: To determine serotonin system abnormalities related to major depression or
previous suicidal behavior. Methods:[11C] WAY100635,[18F] altanserin and positron …

The prevailing neurochemical theory about biological correlates of suicidal behavior focuses
on the serotonergic system. In this study, we assessed the Cortisol, ACTH, CH, prolactin and …

5-HT1A receptor binding sites were measured, by saturation binding with [3H] 8-OH-DPAT,
in frontal and occipital cortex, hippocampus and amygdala obtained at post-mortem …

Objective: Studies comparing people suffering from depression who commited suicide with
control subjects have yielded inconsistent results regarding serotonin (5-HT) involvement in …

HT 1 and 5-HT 1A binding sites were measured in brain tissue obtained at postmortem from
19 suicides, with definite evidence of depression, and 19 sex and age-matched controls …

OBJECTIVE: Abnormalities of serotonin (5-HT) receptor subtypes have been observed in the
postmortem brains of adult suicide victims; however, their role in teenage suicide is …

HT 1D and 5-HT 1E/1F receptor binding sites were measured in brain samples obtained at
post-mortem from suicide victims with a firm retrospective diagnosis of depression, and …
