A family based study of catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).

American journal of medical genetics. Part B, Neuropsychiatric genetics : the official publication of the International Society of Psychiatric Genetics - 5 Feb 2005

Abstract excerpt

Neurobiological studies have suggested that altered dopaminergic function may contribute to the etiology of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). The gene encoding catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) is an attractive candidate for ADHD susceptibility as it plays a major role in the deg...
