Variation in the serotonin transporter gene modulates selective attention to threat.

Emotion (Washington, D.C.) - 1 Aug 2008

Abstract excerpt

The 5-HTTLPR is an insertion/deletion polymorphism in the promoter region of the serotonin transporter gene. Prior research has revealed associations between the short-allele variant of this polymorphism, enhanced self-reported negative emotionality, and hypersensitivity of fear relevant neural circuits. In a sample of 50 healthy women we examined the role of 5-HTTLPR for cognitive-affective processing of...
