Variation in the ESR1 and ESR2 genes and genetic susceptibility to anorexia nervosa.

Molecular psychiatry - 1 Jan 2002

Eastwood H, Brown K M O, Markovic D, Pieri L F

Abstract excerpt

There is significant evidence for genetic factors in the susceptibility to anorexia nervosa (AN). Previously genetic variation in the estrogen receptor 2 gene (ESR2) has been studied, however no strong evidence of association with AN has been found. In the present study variation in the estrogen receptor 1 (ESR1) and ESR2 genes was examined. Estrogen receptors have been localised to areas of the brain involved in...
