In order to evaluate interferon-induced changes in locomotor activity and serotonergic nervous system, we established evaluating system containing both activity monitoring system using video and positron emission tomography(PET) imaging of two proteins related to serotonergic neurotransimission. We clarified temporal changes in total duration of normal activity as well as distributions of two PET tracer accumulations in monkey brain. In addition, effect of anesthetized state on the PET imaging was investigated.
