Association study of androgen receptor CAG repeat polymorphism and male violent criminal activity.

Psychoneuroendocrinology - 1 May 2006

Cheng Daniel, Hong Chen-Jee, Liao Ding-Lieh, Tsai Shih-Jen

Abstract excerpt

Androgens exert their effects primarily by stimulating androgen receptors (ARs) and androgen activity has been implicated in antisocial or violent criminal behaviour. Exon 1 of the AR gene contains a highly polymorphic glutamine (CAG) repeat sequence. We tested the hypothesis that shorter AR CAG repeat polymorphisms, which have a greater AR gene expression, are related to violent criminal activity in Chinese...
