Negative emotionality: monoamine oxidase B gene variants modulate personality traits in healthy humans.

Journal of neural transmission (Vienna, Austria : 1996) - 1 Oct 2009

Dlugos Andrea M, Palmer Abraham A, de Wit Harriet

Abstract excerpt

Monoamine oxidase A and B (MAOA and MAOB) appear to be involved in the pathogenesis of Major Depression, and vulnerability of Major Depression is associated with personality traits relating to positive and negative affect. This study aimed to investigate associations between MAOA and MAOB polymorphisms and personality traits of positive and negative emotionality in healthy volunteers, to elucidate mechanisms...
