    The authors stated that perhaps "serotonin is involved in the extent to which the sensitivity of neurons is reduced during adaptation" [3] p. 445. It could be that the decrease in sensitivity of the post-adaptation orientation neurons is further diminished by decreased serotonergic functioning, which increases the magnitude of the TAE.

    Serotonin pathways are thought to modulate eating, both the amount as well as the motor processes associated with eating. The serotonergic projections into the hypothalamus are thought to be particularly relevant, and an increase in serotonergic signaling is thought to generally decrease food consumption (evidenced by fenfluramine , however ...

    Diurnal mood improvement was associated with activity of dorsal neural networks. Increased mean core temperature was also observed. One hypothesis proposed that depression was a result of a phase shift. [30] Daytime light exposure correlates with decreased serotonin transporter activity, which may underlie the seasonality of some depression. [31]
