摘要：

Neurotransmitter system dysfunction may contribute to the borderline personality disorder traits of impulsive aggression and affective instability. This article reviews evidence from neurochemical assays, receptor-density studies, neuroendocrine-challenge paradigms, functional neuroimaging studies, and candidate-gene research, which converge to identify particular neurotransmitter systems that seem to be dysregulated in patients with borderline personality disorder.
