Platelet monoamine oxidase (MAO) activity and concentrations of 5-HIAA and HVA in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) were estimated in a series of 54 chronic pain patients. Platelet MAO activity was found to correlate, positively to CSF concentrations of 5-HIAA and HVA, which had been adjusted in order to eliminate the influence of age and body height. However, only the correlation with 5-HIAA reached a significant level. When partial correlations were sought, only the positive correlation between platelet MAO activity and CSF 5-HIAA remained. The results support the notion that platelet MAO ia a biological marker for some trait dependent property of the central serotonergic system.
