“…The usefulness of this approach in human neurological and psychiatric diseases is demonstrated by specific changes of platelet SERT in epilepsy and depression [1,9,[17][18][19][20][21]. The present results strengthen the idea of a correlation between platelet and brain SERT.…”

“…This suggests that the 3H-imipramine binding sites on the platelet membrane is a trait marker rather than a state-dependent marker of depression. Such a conclusion has also been reached by Paul et al (1981b) who showed that the number of binding sites remained decreased even after clinical recovery. To overcome the possible interference of tricyclic antidepressants with the 3H-imipramine binding, Gay etal.…”
