Transgenic mice lacking a functional 5-HT 2c receptor gene are extremely susceptible to audiogenic seizures, suggesting that 5-HT 2c receptors mediate inhibition of neuronal network excitability. The present association study tested the hypothesis that a Cys23Ser substitution polymorphism within the
Recent findings of an association between schizophrenia and a T102C polymorphism at the 5-HT 2a receptor gene (particularly with genotype 1-2 and 2-2 and allele 2) prompted us to investigate this marker in familial Irish schizophrenic patients, their relatives, and ethnically matched unrelated contr
