More specifically, we observed that the T allele in the rs4570625 polymorphism was associated with psychotic disorders, and the A allele in the rs17110747 TPH2 polymorphism was associated with alcohol abuse in patients with TLE.
This study was designed to examine whether the -473T > A and -8396G > C polymorphisms of the TPH2 gene may be associated with completed suicide in subjects with major psychoses from the Stanley Foundation Brain Bank sample.
We have searched for association between 119 SNPs in genes implicated in monoaminergic pathways [tryptophan hydroxylase 1 (TPH1), TPH2, tyrosine hydroxylase (TH), DOPA decarboxylase (DDC), dopamine beta-hydroxylase (DBH), catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT), monoamine oxidase A (MAOA) and MAOB] and monoamine metabolite concentrations in CSF in 74 patients with psychotic disorder.
