Abstract

Stimulus-dependent hemispheric-regional changes are found in the activity of the serotoninergic system. Determination of stimulus novelty is provided by a decrease of serotonin and its metabolite content in the frontal cortex of the left hemisphere as well as in the striatum without the effect of lateralization. Presentation of an extinct stimulus is attended by a serotonin increase in the hippocampus of the left hemisphere and in the amygdaloid complex of both hemispheres.
