Irritable assault and variation in the COMT gene.

Psychiatric genetics - 1 Dec 2007

Flory Janine D, Xu Ke, New Antonia S, Finch Thembi, Goldman David, Siever Larry J

Abstract excerpt

Aggression is associated with the 'low' activity allele (Met) of the functional Val158Met polymorphism among people with schizophrenia spectrum disorders relative to the 'high' activity (Val) allele. We examined this polymorphism in a sample of 112 people with axis II personality disorders. Participants completed the Buss Durkee Hostility Inventory. Two single nucleotide polymorphisms in the COMT gene were...
