Genes within the serotonergic system are differentially expressed in human brain.

BMC neuroscience - 15 May 2009

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Serotonin is an important neurotransmitter with wide-ranging functions throughout the central nervous system. There is strong evidence to suggest that regulation of serotonergic gene expression might be related to genetic variability, and several studies have focused on understanding the functional effects of specific polymorphisms within these genes on expression levels. However, the combination of...
