摘要

There is growing interest in serotonin transporter (5-HTT) function in the human brain, since alteration in 5-HTT has been suggested in a variety of neurophychiatric disorders. Age-related decline in postsynaptic 5-HT receptors has been demonstrated in postmortem human studies and in vivo imaging studies, and has been assumed to be related to changes in mental function in the normal aging process. However, few studies have investigated the aging effect on 5-HTT in human brain in vivo, since the availability of suitable ligands has been limited. To investigate the aging effect on 5-HTT in living human brain, we performed positron emission tomography (PET) scans with a selective ligand for 5-HTT, [11C](+)McN5652. We examined 28 healthy male volunteers aged between 20 and 79 years. The uptake was quantified in the thalamus and midbrain by graphical analysis with the cerebellum as a reference tissue, and binding potential (BP) was used for the index of 5-HTT binding. There was a significant age-related decline in BP in the thalamus and midbrain. The decline in [11C](+)McN5652 binding was 9.6% per decade in the thalamus and 10.5% per decade in the midbrain.
