The anatomical localization of 5-HT(4) receptor mRNA and 5-HT(4) receptor protein was examined in sections of post-mortem human brain by in situ hybridization histochemistry and radioligand receptor autoradiography. In the in situ hybridization study, the highest levels of 5-HT(4) receptor mRNA were
## Abstract We evaluated the role of the serotonin transporter gene promoter polymorphism (5βHTTLPR) in the etiology of dissociation. Adult twin pairs (__N__ = 184 pairs; mean age 33.0 years, __SD__ = 10.8) completed measures for dissociation and trauma. The DNA samples were genotyped for 5βHTTLPR
It has been suggested that the serotonin transporter (5-hydroxytryptamine-transporter or 5-HTT) may be involved in the pathogenesis of affective disorders. Recently, Collier et al. (1996) found that the frequency of the low-activity short variant (s) of the 5-HTT-linked polymorphic region (5-HTTLPR)
