Abstract excerpt
Enhancer/silencer activity of each allelic variant of the human serotonin transporter linked polymorphic region (5-HTTLPR) including newly found ones was measured in several cell lines including raphe-nucleus-derived RN46A. 5-HTTLR variants ligated in pGL-3 promoter vector increased luciferase activity in COS-7 cells and PC12 cells, where no significant differences among the variants were observed. In RN46 cell...
