Abstract excerpt

The human serotonin transporter (5-HTT) gene is an important candidate for the pathogenesis of mood disorders. Associations have been reported between a variable-number tandem-repeat polymorphism in intron 2 of the serotonin transporter gene (5-HTTVNTR) and mood disorders in a number of studies of Western and Chinese populations. However, no such relationships have been determined in other analogous research. To...
