The dopamine D4 receptor is of major interest in schizophrenia research due to its high affinity for the atypical neuroleptic clozapine and a high degree of variability in the receptor gene (DRD4). Although several genetic linkage analyses performed on schizophrenia multiplex families from different

A replicated association has been reported between the normal personality trait of novelty seeking on the Tridimensional Personality Questionnaire (TPQ) and an exon III polymorphism in the dopamine D4 receptor gene (D4DR). Genotyping of a polymorphism in exon I of the same gene was carried out in 12

In response to this report, further studies were conducted; however, these studies yielded conflicting results. In the present study, we e
The human dopamine D 2 receptor gene (DRD 2 ) has received considerable attention for the past several years as a potential candidate that may affect susceptibility to alcoholism. The association studies that compared the frequencies of alleles of DRD 2 gene between alcoholics and control groups hav
