Research Abstract |
We performed positron emission tomography study on serotonin transporter (5HTT) and serotonin 1A receptor (5HT 1A) in healthy subjects. High binding of 5HTT was observed in the striatum, raphe nucleus, and thalamus, whereas low binding in the cerebral cortex. In contrast, high binding of 5HT1A was observed in the hippocampus, cerebral cortex, and raphe nucleus, moderate binding in the cerebral cortex, raphe nucleus, and striatum, and low binding in the thalamus. Furthermore, negative correlations in binding between 5HTT and 5HT1A were observed in some brain regions.
