Association Between Polymorphism (5-HTTLPR) of the Serotonin Transporter Gene and Behavioral Response to Unfair Distribution [PDF]
Behavioral responses to unfair distribution have been measured mainly using the Ultimatum Game (UG). Recent studies examining the biological basis of behavioral responses to unfair distribution have focused attention on the role of the serotonin ...

Chronic tension-type facial pain- a pilot study on HTTLPR genetic polymorphisms [PDF]
Background: This study looked at the association between serotonin transporter gene variants and with chronic persistent tension-type facial pain. Known as triallelic 5-HTTLPR, the serotonin transporter gene-linked polymorphic region and its rs25531 ...

Neuroticism and polymorphisms in the serotonin transporter gene [PDF]
Background. There is evidence for an association between two different polymorphisms of the human serotonin transporter gene (5-HTT) and the personality trait of neuroticism and affective disorder.Methods. We studied the association between neuroticism and polymorphisms in the 5HTT-linked promoter region and in a variable number tandem repeat region

Serotonin and Serotonin Transporter Gene Variant in Rotating Shift Workers [PDF]
Because serotonin (5-HT) is a neurotransmitter associated with circadian rhythm regulation, we explored a possible relation among 5-HT, serotonin metabolite, 5-hydroxyindolacetic acid (5HIAA), and the functional polymorphism of the serotonin transporter gene (SLC6A4) promoter with rotating shift work.683 men were included in this study: 437 day workers

Structure and Variation of Three Canine Genes Involved in Serotonin Binding and Transport: The Serotonin Receptor 1A Gene (htr1A), Serotonin Receptor 2A Gene (htr2A), and Serotonin Transporter Gene (slc6A4) [PDF]
Aggressive behavior is the most frequently encountered behavioral problem in dogs. Abnormalities in brain serotonin metabolism have been described in aggressive dogs. We studied canine serotonergic genes to investigate genetic factors underlying canine aggression.

Serotonin plays an important role in the etiology of depression. Serotonin is also crucial for brain development. For instance, animal studies have demonstrated that early disruptions in the serotonin system affect brain development and emotion ...

Effect of acute stressor and serotonin transporter genotype on amygdala first wave transcriptome in mice. [PDF]
The most prominent brain region evaluating the significance of external stimuli immediately after their onset is the amygdala. Stimuli evaluated as being stressful actuate a number of physiological processes as an immediate stress response.

In the present paper, we investigated the 5HTTLPR and STin2 polymorphisms in the promoter region of the serotonin transporter gene (SLC6A4), the G861C polymorphism (rs6296) of the serotonin receptor 1D beta (HTR1B), the T102C (rs6113) and C516T (rs6305 ...

Variations in serotoninergic signaling have been related to behavioral outcomes. Alterations in the genome, such as DNA methylation and histone modifications, are affected by serotonin neurotransmission. The amygdala is an important brain region involved
