Transporter-facilitated uptake of serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine or 5-HT) has been implicated
in anxiety in humans and animal models and is the site of action of widely used uptake-…

Mood, emotion, cognition, and motor functions as well as circadian and neuroendocrine
rhythms, including food intake, sleep, and reproductive activity, are modulated by the midbrain …

The sodium-dependent, high affinity serotonin [5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT)] transporter (5-HTT)
provides the primary mechanism for inactivation of 5-HT after its release into the synaptic …

The human serotonin transporter (5‐HTT), encoded by a single gene on chromosome 17q11.2,
is expressed in brain and blood cells. 5‐HTT is implicated in mood and anxiety regulation…

Background The heritability of interindividual variation in anxiety and other aspects of
personality establishes that variants of genes influence these traits. A functional polymorphism in …

The high-affinity serotonin (5-HT) transporter (5-HTT) plays an important role in the removal
of extracellular serotonin, thereby modulating and terminating the action of this …

By modulating the magnitude and duration of postsynaptic responses, carrier-facilitated
serotonin (5-HT) transport into and release from the presynaptic neuron is central to the fine …

Background Computer tomography (CT) is still the fastest and most robust technique to rule
out ICH in acute stroke. However CT-sensitivity for detection of ischemic stroke in the …

Interactions with antidepressants, as well as other biochemical evidence, implicate the
serotonin transporter 5‐HTT in the etiology of affective disorders. However, genetic studies have …

Focal hippocampal diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) lesion patterns are detected in transient
global amnesia (TGA) patients in different frequency. It has been speculated that acute …
