abstract = {The highly diverse serotonergic system with at least 16
different receptor subtypes is implicated in the
pathophysiology of most neuropsychiatric disorders including
affective and anxiety disorders, obsessive compulsive
disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder, eating disorders,
sleep disturbance, attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder,
drug addiction, suicidal behavior, schizophrenia, Alzheimer,
etc. Alterations of the interplay between various pre- and
postsynaptic receptor subtypes might be involved in the
pathogenesis of these disorders. However, there is a lack of
comprehensive in vivo values using standardized procedures.
In the current PET study we quantified 3 receptor subtypes,
including the major inhibitory (5-HT(1A) and 5-HT(1B)) and
excitatory (5-HT(2A)) receptors, and the transporter (5-HTT)
in the brain of healthy human subjects to provide a database
of standard values. PET scans were performed on 95 healthy
subjects (age=28.0 ± 6.9 years; $59\%$ males) using the
selective radioligands [carbonyl-(11)C]WAY-100635,
[(11)C]P943, [(18)F]altanserin and [(11)C]DASB,
respectively. A standard template in MNI stereotactic space
served for region of interest delineation. This template
follows two anatomical parcellation schemes: 1) Brodmann
areas including 41 regions and 2) AAL (automated anatomical
labeling) including 52 regions. Standard values (mean, SD,
and range) for each receptor and region are presented. Mean
cortical and subcortical binding potential (BP) values were
in good agreement with previously published human in vivo
and post-mortem data. By means of linear equations, PET
binding potentials were translated to post-mortem binding
(provided in pmol/g), yielding 5.89 pmol/g (5-HT(1A)), 23.5
pmol/g (5-HT(1B)), 31.44 pmol/g (5-HT(2A)), and 11.33 pmol/g
(5-HTT) being equivalent to the BP of 1, respectively.
Furthermore, we computed individual voxel-wise maps with BP
values and generated average tracer-specific whole-brain
binding maps. This knowledge might improve our
interpretation of the alterations taking place in the
serotonergic system during neuropsychiatric disorders.},
