Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Norepinephrine (NE) plays a central role in post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Dopamine β-hydroxylase (DβH) converts dopamine (DA) to NE and its activity varies widely across individuals. Mustapic et al. (2007) reported a PTSD-associated deficit in serum DβH activity in a genotype-controlled analysis of combat veterans. We tested whether such a deficit would occur in a sample of civilians....
