The authors review the accumulating evidence from preclinical, clinical and postmortem studies suggesting that abnormality in serotonin systems may be associated with both attempts at suicide and aggression towards others and inanimate objects. Although these behaviors are multidetermined they often involve poor impulse control, which may reflect low central serotonin turnover. The need for further studies of possible peripheral biological markers for suicidal and impulsive behavior is discussed.
