Higher HbA1c levels associate with lower hippocampal serotonin transporter availability in non-diabetic adults with obesity

Abstract The current study aimed to investigate whether the in vivo availability of central serotonin reuptake transporters (5-HTT) is associated with plasma levels of glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) in non-diabetic humans with obesity. 5-HTT availability was measured by using positron emission tomo...
