5-HTTLPR polymorphism in bulimia nervosa: a multiple-model meta-analysis.

Psychiatric genetics - 1 Oct 2012

Polsinelli Gina N, Levitan Robert N, De Luca Vincenzo

Abstract excerpt

Several lines of research have found that genes in the serotonergic system may cause susceptibility to eating disorders (EDs). In particular, functional polymorphisms of the serotonin transporter gene (5-HTT) have been suspected to play a role in the pathogenesis of eating disorders. Several studies have examined the association between the 5-HTTLPR polymorphism and bulimia nervosa (BN). The results of these...
