Abstract excerpt
The 5-HT(2A)-serotonin receptor is a major molecular target for most atypical antipsychotic drugs as well as most hallucinogens, which can exacerbate psychotic symptoms. In this study, we examined whether random sequence variations in the gene (single nucleotide polymorphisms, SNPs) encoding the 5-HT(2A)-serotonin receptor could explain inter-individual variability in atypical antipsychotic and agonist drug...
