Looking on the bright side of serotonin transporter gene variation.

Biological psychiatry - 15 Mar 2011

Homberg Judith R, Lesch Klaus-Peter

Abstract excerpt

Converging evidence indicates an association of the short (s), low-expressing variant of the repeat length polymorphism, serotonin transporter-linked polymorphic region (5-HTTLPR), in the human serotonin transporter gene (5-HTT, SERT, SLC6A4) with anxiety-related traits and increased risk for dep...
