Does BDNF Val66Met Polymorphism Confer Risk for Posttraumatic Stress Disorder?

Neuropsychobiology - 1 Jan 2015

Wang Tengfei

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Evidence has indicated that BDNF (brain-derived neurotrophic factor) Val66Met genetic variant could be linked to the development of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). However, clinical observations studying the BDNF polymorphism and the risk of PTSD yielded contradictory results. In this meta-analysis we evaluated the association between BDNF Val66Met and PTSD risk. METHOD: Systematic searches in...
