Recent animal research suggests that brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), may mediate response to different environmental stimuli. In this paper, we evaluated the possible role of BDNF as a moderator of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in the context of different socioeconomic classes. We genotyped ten single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in and around BDNF in 229 families and evaluate...
