Planning, decision-making and the COMT rs4818 polymorphism in healthy males.

Neuropsychologia - 31 Jan 2008

Roussos Panos, Giakoumaki Stella G, Pavlakis Stefanos, Bitsios Panos

Abstract excerpt

Recent evidence suggests that a synonymous polymorphism within the COMT gene (rs4818 C/G) accounts for a greater variation of COMT activity compared to the functional Val158Met polymorphism. This is the first study on the effects of the rs4818 C/G polymorphism on cognition. One hundred and seven healthy males were tested with the Stockings of Cambridge (SoC) and the Iowa Gambling Task (IGT) and then grouped...
