Meta-analysis shows significant association between dopamine system genes and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).

Human molecular genetics - 15 Jul 2006

Li Dawei, Sham Pak C, Owen Michael J, He Lin

Abstract excerpt

Molecular genetic investigations of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) have found associations with a variable number of tandem repeat (VNTR) situated in the 3'-untranslated region of dopamine transporter gene (DAT1), a VNTR in exon 3 of dopamine receptor 4 gene (DRD4) and a microsatellite polymorphism located at 18.5 kb from the 5' end of dopamine receptor 5 gene (DRD5). A number of independent...
