  • Title: Effect of age on platelet 5-HT concentrations in healthy controls, depressed and schizophrenic patients.
    Author: Mück-Seler D, Bujas M, Ljubić-Thibal V, Jakovljević M.
    Journal: Neuropsychobiology; 1996; 34(4):201-3. PubMed ID: 9121621.
    Abstract:
    The influence of age on platelet 5-HT concentrations was investigated in 85 male unipolar depressed inpatients, 113 male schizophrenic inpatients and 81 normal male controls. The correlation coefficients between platelet 5-HT concentrations and age within groups were very low and nonsignificant. Our results suggest that higher platelet 5-HT content, observed in schizophrenic patients, could not be ascribed to the influence of age.
