- Abstract
The article examines the interaction of the corticotropin-realising factor (CRF) and serotonin brain systems in anxiety-related disorders that play a crucial role in the evocation of behavioral changes. It mentions that critical interactions between the CRF and serotonin systems may occur in the dorsal raphe nucleus (dRN). It notes that interactions between CRF and serotonin may offer new links for therapeutic medication of stress-induced affective disorders.
