Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: This study is designed to understand the pathophysiology of one of the most serious health problems, chronic tension-type headache (CTTH). Two polymorphic sites in serotonin transporter protein gene attracted much interest. These are: the variable number of tandem repeats (VNTR) and 5'-flanking promoter region (5-HTTLPR). MATERIALS AND METHODS: VNTR and 5-HTTLPR polymorphisms were...
