Abstract excerpt

The role of the deletion/insertion polymorphism within the promoter region of the serotonin transporter gene (5-HTT) is under discussion as a potential genetic risk factor for Alzheimers's disease (AD). Here we report significant differences in the allelic distribution of this polymorphism with a higher frequency of the short variant allele in AD patients when compared to controls. This difference was independent...
