The serotonin transporter (5-HTT) has long been considered likely to play a role in autism. Hyperserotonemia has been consistently found in a proportion of autistic patients, and the use of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) can have a positive effect in treating some symptoms of autism. Specific variants of the 5-HTT gene, SLC6A4, especially the insertion-deletion 5-HTTLPR promoter locus, have been found to modulate its expression and transporter function.
