Exploring the impact of BDNF Val66Met genotype on serotonin transporter and serotonin-1A receptor binding.

The brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) Val66Met polymorphism (rs6265) may impact on the in-vivo binding of important serotonergic structures such as the serotonin transporter (5-HTT) and the serotonin-1A (5-HT1A) receptor.
