Distress of ostracism: oxytocin receptor gene polymorphism confers sensitivity to social exclusion.

Social cognitive and affective neuroscience - 1 Aug 2015

McQuaid Robyn J, McInnis Opal A, Matheson Kimberly, Anisman Hymie

Abstract excerpt

A single-nucleotide polymorphism on the oxytocin receptor gene (OXTR), rs53576, involving a guanine (G) to adenine (A) substitution has been associated with altered prosocial features. Specifically, individuals with the GG genotype (i.e. the absence of the polymorphism) display beneficial traits...
