Abstract excerpt
Several studies have suggested a possible association of a polymorphism at the dopamine D4 receptor gene and attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder [LaHoste et al., 1996; Rowe et al., 1998; Smalley et al., 1998; Sunohara et al., submitted; Swanson et al., 1998]. The allele reported to be associated with attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is the allele with seven copies of the 48 bp repeat in the...
