Are serotonin levels in humans affected by light?
I'm not sure about humans, but this is true of many vertebrate's retinas. There is experimental evidence showing light-inhibited production of serotonin. This article reviews how serotonin is regulated in response to day lenght (as well as fasting/feeding cycles). The authors suggest a mechanism in which serotonin and ghrelin integrate signals from fasting/feeding and night/day together.
