  • * Each radioligand was tested 3 times in control baboon or different baboon lesioned previously with serotonergic neurotoxin MDMA.

  • Designates significant difference from control (ANOVA without correction for multiple comparisons).

  • MB = midbrain; Hypo = hypothalamus; Put = putamen; Cd = caudate; FC = frontal cortex; PC = parietal cortex; TC = temporal cortex; CC = cingulate cortex; OC = occipital cortex; Cereb = cerebellum.

    Values represent mean ± SD (n = 3).
