Abstract excerpt
Serotonergic system-related genes are likely to be involved in mechanisms underlying attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). We investigated the association of serotonin the 1A receptor C-1019G single nucleotide polymorphism (HTR1A C-1019G SNP) and tryptophan hydroxylase 2 gene -703G/T (TPH2 -703G/T) SNP with ADHD. All of the ADHD subjects completed a comprehensive and standardized diagnostic and...
