Abstract excerpt
The p75 neurotrophin receptor (p75(NTR)) is an essential component of neurotrophin system, and has been implicated in the pathogenesis of major depressive disorder (MDD) and in the mechanism of antidepressant action. This study aimed to delineate the association between phenotype (MDD susceptibility and antidepressant response) and genotype (p75(NTR) common genetic variants) in a Chinese population. A total of...
