Abstract excerpt

A deficient dopamine D(2) receptor (DA2) formation or action may contribute to hypertension via an increase of catecholamine release. In addition, Axis II personality disorders that appears odd or eccentric (cluster A) is associated with a low density of DA2. This study sought to examine if a NcoI restriction fragment length polymorphism (C to T transition) in exon 6 of the dopamine D(2) receptor gene (DRD2) was...
