Question:

Amine hypothesis of mood

Author: Suzuki



Answer:

The amine hypothesis of mood postulates that brain amines, particularly norepinephrine (NE) and serotonin (5-HT), are neurotransmitters in pathways that function in the expression of mood. According to the hypothesis, a functional decrease in the activity of such amines is thought to result in depression; a functional increase of activity results in mood elevation.
