%X Serotonergic abnormalities have been regularly reported in the brains of suicide victims. Because of evidence that pineal function is altered in depressed subjects and that serotonin-releasing axons may innervate the pineal, we assayed tritiated serotonin binding in a series of control and suicide pineals. High affinity binding was present, and there were apparent differences between some suicides and controls.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>
