Abstract excerpt

Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and serotonin transporter (SERT) is implicated in the adverse life events which lead to depression. The variation in genetic make-up of BDNF (Val66Met) and SERT (5'-HTTLPR) are potential biomarkers in the development of neuropsychiatric disorders including depression. The purpose of this study was to investigate the correlation of functional polymorphisms of BDNF and SERT...
