Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Previous candidate gene studies of major depressive disorder (MDD) have provided inconclusive evidence of association for genes with strong biological rationale for MDD. In this study, we aimed to investigate the association of tryptophan hydroxylase 2 gene with MDD and its treatment response in the Chinese Han population. METHODS: Three hundred and sixty eight depressed patients who met DSM-IV...
