High familial risk for mood disorder is associated with low dorsolateral prefrontal cortex serotonin transporter binding reports a positron emission tomography study with the carbon-11 DASB radioligand for the serotonin transporter among healthy twins that had a co-twin that were either affected by a mood disorder or not. The study found some difference in the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex.

Group 1 of 9 healthy twin with mood disorder affected co-twin were included in the study. The Danish group had a mean age of 32.2.
