The role of central serotonergic (5-HT) system dysfunction in the regulation of aggression in
both animals and man has been investigated for more than the past two decades. Evidence …

This review covers the regulation of serotonin synthesis in serotonergic neurons of the
central nervous system over the short term, that is minutes to hours, as opposed to days or …

In a university sample (n= 245) and a community sample (n= 222), we replicate the higher-
order factor solution for the Five Factor Model (Big Five) reported by Digman (Digman, JM …

The density (B max) of 5-HT 2 receptors labelled with [3 H] ketanserin was significantly
increased in prefrontal cortex (by 67%) and amygdala (by 97%) from suicide/depressives in …

Hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis and central 5-HT function were compared in
chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS), depression and healthy states. 10 patients with CFS and 15 …

Retrograde transport of a fluorescent dye was employed to study the projections from raphe
nuclei to neocortex in the rat. The spatial distributions of labeled raphe cells were analyzed …

In this review, the maturational changes occurring in the mammalian respiratory network
from fetal to adult ages are analyzed. Most of the data presented were obtained on rodents …

GABA A-receptors in the brain display a striking structural heterogeneity, which is based on
a multiplicity of diverse subunits. The allocation of GABA A-receptor subtypes to identified …

Hippocampal extracellular levels of noradrenaline (NA), 5‐hydroxytryptamine (5‐HT), and 5‐
hydroxyindole‐acetic acid (5‐HIAA) were monitored with the microdialysis technique in …

This thesis has analyzed the role of brain serotonergic (5-HT) neurotransmission in
avoidance learning in the male rat using neurochemical, pharmacological and behavioural …
