The relationship between dose and SERT occupancy was fitted according to a 2-parameter Michaelis–Menten model for all antidepressants separately: occupancy increased hyperbolically with increasing antidepressant dose in the lower dose-range, reaching a plateau at an occupancy of approximately 80% at roughly the usual minimum recommended dose for depression (Fig. 1). This evidence concerns the gene SLC6A4 and depressive symptom measurement.
