Association of serotonin transporter gene (5HTT) polymorphism and juvenile myoclonic epilepsy: a case-control study.

Acta neurologica Belgica - 1 Sept 2015

Esmail Eman H, Labib Dalia M, Rabie Walaa A

Abstract excerpt

Serotonin levels might alter susceptibility to seizures. Serotonin transporter (5HTT) gene polymorphisms were found to be associated with some forms of epilepsy. Here, we attempted to examine an association between 5HTT VNTR allele variants in a serotonin transporter gene and epileptogenesis in juvenile myoclonic epilepsy (JME) cases. We conducted a case-control candidate gene study evaluating the frequencies of...
