Abstract excerpt

Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) has been suggested as a candidate gene for depression and numerous studies have investigated the possible association between genetic variants within BDNF and depression. Clinical studies have investigated the serum BDNF levels in individuals with depression. However, few studies have combined genetic association studies with serum BDNF measurements. The purpose of the...
