چکیده

background :5httlpr polymorphism (5- hydroxytryptamine transporter linked promoter region polymorphism) is the most widely studied genetic variant in psychiatry. the present study is a modest effort at ascertaining the role of 5ht transporter linked promoter region polymorphism (5httlpr) in anxiety and depressive disorders in kashmir (india).the aim of this study was to examine 5-hydroxy tryptamine transporter (5htt) gene promoter region polymorphism in anxiety and depressive disorders.   methods :thirty patients with unipolar depressive disorders, 30 patients with anxiety disorders and 40 healthy volunteers (controls) were studied on a case control design, using polymerase chain reaction (pcr) and agarose gel electrophoresis after digestion with endonuclease enzyme. genotypes and allele frequencies were compared using chi square tests, and p value of < 0.05 was considered as statistically significant.   results : the mean (±sd) ham-a (hamilton rating scale for anxiety) scores for anxiety and depressive groups were 28.2±5.14 and 17±5.61, respectively (p < 0.001). the mean (±sd)ham-d (hamilton rating scale for depression) scores for depressive and anxiety groups were 25±5.58 and 15±6.13, respectively. (p< 0.001). the frequency of s allele was significantly high (83.3% vs 60%) in the group with anxiety (p< 0.05) compared to the control group (p> 0.05).   conclusion : the genetic studies are still evolving as pathogenesis of anxiety and depressive disorders and involve the interaction of environmental factors with various genes. genetic variation in different populations and hence different environments is important for elucidation of the mechanisms of these disorders. however, the study concludes that the locus under study is not shared between the two disorders.

Associations between serotonin transporter gene promoter region (5-HTTLPR) polymorphism and gaze bias for emotional information.

The serotonin transporter promoter region polymorphism (5-HTTLPR) is associated with neural response to negative images in brain regions involved in the experience of emotion. However, the behavioral implications of this sensitivity have been studied far less extensively. The current study used eye-tracking methodology to examine how individuals genotyped for the 5-HTTLPR, including the single ...

Frontal-limbic white matter pathway associations with the serotonin transporter gene promoter region (5-HTTLPR) polymorphism.

Variation in the serotonin transporter gene-linked polymorphic region (5-HTTLPR) has been associated with heightened neural activity in limbic and prefrontal regions in response to emotional stimuli. The current study examined whether the 5-HTTLPR polymorphism is also associated with alterations in microstructure of frontal-limbic white matter (WM) tracts. Thirty-seven (mean age, 20.51 years; r...

Serotonin (5-HT) regulates important biological and psychological processes including mood, and may be associated with the development of several psychiatric disorders. An association between psychopathology and genes that regulate 5-HT neurotransmission is a robust area of research. Identification of the genes responsible for the predisposition, development, and pharmacological response of var...
