Abstract excerpt

Interactions with antidepressants, as well as other biochemical evidence, implicate the serotonin transporter 5-HTT in the etiology of affective disorders. However, genetic studies have produced conflicting results concerning an association of 5-HTT with bipolar disorder. We examined a variable number tandem repeat in the regulatory region of this gene to investigate the possible contribution of 5-HTT to bipolar...
