Abstract excerpt
Disturbances in serotonergic neurotransmission system have been implicated in the etiology of mood disorders. As the importance of genetic factors is well established, genes encoding for proteins of the serotonergic pathway are important candidates to unravel the underlying genetic contribution. We examined two polymorphisms in the serotonin-2A-receptor gene (5-HT2A; T102C and His452Tyr) and the...
