Brief Summary: The study aims to explore whether acute tryptophan depletion can affect the emotion and interference processing whether this effect is moderated by the TPH2 genotype
Detailed Description: Based on previous studies suggesting that serotonin a neurotransmitter is associated with social emotional behavior including emotional reactivity and emotion regulation the present study aims to explore effects of acute tryptophan depletion ATD on emotion processing and emotional interference processing within a randomized double-blind with-subject placebo-controlled pharmaco-fMRI experiment To further examine the potential moderating effects of the genetic makeup of the serotonin system the present study will include a pharmacogenetics imaging approach Given that TPH2 is the key regulator of the serotonergic signaling pathway we therefore assessed whether such the effects of tryptophan depletion vary according to the TPH2 genotype To this end healthy male TPH2-GG or TPH2-TT carriers will be recruited and will receive ATD 100g and placebo 1023g in a within subject design To control for potential effects of pre-medication personality traits as well as effects of medicines on mood subjects will be administered pre-treatment assessing relevant personality traits and post-treatment assessments of mood
