Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a common and complex mental disorder. Recent studies found that genetic variants located in GRIK4, which encoded glutamate ionotropic receptor kainate type subunit 4, was associated with the MDD. In this study, we intended to investigate whether GRIK4 gene was associated with MDD. So five single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were selected and genotyped (rs79526501, rs11218016,...
