The BDNF Val66Met polymorphism is associated with rumination in healthy adults.

Emotion (Washington, D.C.) - 1 Aug 2009

Beevers Christopher G, Wells Tony T, McGeary John E

Abstract excerpt

This study examined associations between the tendency to ruminate and 2 polymorphisms: the Val66Met polymorphism in the brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) gene and 5-HTTLPR polymorphism in the serotonin transporter gene (SLC6A4). Participants were a homogeneous group of healthy, unmedicated, never depressed individuals with few current symptoms of depression (N = 71). Results indicated that met...
