In this exploratory review, we attempt to integrate pre and post synaptic theories of the biochemical basis of depression-in particular with regard to 5-HT. We will be providing evidence that in major depressive disorder, there is a continuity of dysfunction of neural function, i.e. pre and post synaptic serotonergic symptoms are affected. Furthermore, we will also be providing the implications of this approach for normal treatments for depressive disorder. (C) 2001 Harcourt Publishers Ltd.
