Epistatic interaction between COMT and DAT1 genes on eating behavior: a pilot study.

Eating behaviors - 1 Apr 2009

Hersrud Samantha L, Stoltenberg Scott F

Abstract excerpt

Problems related to food and weight in women may be influenced by the (DA) dopamine system. Catechol-o-methyl transferase (COMT) and the dopamine transporter (DAT) exert control on concentrations of extracellular DA. High and low functioning alleles of the COMT Val158Met and DAT1 3' UTR VNTR polymorphisms have been identified, and their associations with reward and cognition suggest a role in the modulation of...
