Abstract excerpt
Genetic variants of the serotonergic neurotransmitter system are potential contributing factors in the pathological processes underlying Alzheimer's disease (AD). We examined polymorphisms of the serotonin transporter (SLC6A4) and serotonin receptor 2A (HTR2A) genes for possible association with AD, and therefore genotyped 5-HTTLPR, STin2-VNTR and HTR2A T102C polymorphisms in 252 Hungarian AD patients and 234...
