Neuroendocrine responses to challenge with dl-fenfluramine and aggression in disruptive behavior disorders of children and adolescents.
Prolactin (PRL) and cortisol (CORT) responses to a single oral administration (1.0 mg/kg) of the indirect serotonin agonist dl-fenfluramine were assessed in unmedicated prepubertal and adolescent males with disruptive behavior disorders (DBD). Neuroendocrine responses were correlated with scores on aggression rating scales in prepubertal and adolescent DBD patients and compared with those of matched adolescent normal control subjects. Net dl-fenfluramine-induced PRL and CORT release was not correlated with aggression rating scores in prepubertal and adolescent DBD patients and did not differ significantly between adolescent DBD patients and normal control subjects. Although the present study does not demonstrate a serotonergic abnormality in aggression or DBD, this may be more a reflection of limitations of the neuroendocrine challenge test procedures or the methods used than evidence that serotonergic function in the central nervous system is normal in aggression.[1]
