Cholecystokinin tetrapeptide (CCKJ is known to induce panic attacks in patients with panic disorder at a lower dose than in normal controls. Therefore, the cholecystokinin B (CCKB) receptor gene is a candidate gene for panic disorder. We searched for mutations in the CCK, gene in 22 probands of pani
## Abstract The tetrapeptide of cholecystokinin (CCK), CCKβ4, is known to induce panic attacks in human subjects, while CCKβ8 is reported to have a therapeutic effect on schizophrenia symptoms. Recently, we have identified a novel microsatellite polymorphism in the 5β² upstream region of the CCK gen
