摘要:
A method of treating a subject for a serotonergic neurotransmission dysregulation disorder, comprises administering the subject a serotonin enhancer (e.g., a serotonin reuptake inhibitor) in an amount effective to treat the disorder; and concurrently administering the subject 5-hydroxytryptophan in an amount effective to enhance the activity of the serotonin enhancer, (e.g., serotonin reuptake inhibitor). In preferred embodiments the disorder is depression, anxiety, or substance abuse.

摘要:
A method of screening a subject for a serotonergic neurotransmission dysregulation disorder comprises detecting the presence or absence of an Tph2 mutation in the subject; and then determining that the subject is at increased risk of a serotonergic neurotransmission dysregulation disorder due to the presence or absence of the Tph2 mutation.

摘要:
Described herein are methods and composition for diagnosing and evaluating the treatment of depression using one or more biomarker metabolites for the diagnosis and monitoring treatment efficacy. In one aspect, the biomarker metabolites can be used to screen subjects for the likelihood of developing depression, the diagnosis thereof, monitoring the efficacy of treatment, and evaluating a subject's propensity for responding to treatment.
