Parent-of-origin effect in transmission of bipolar disorder and abnormal phosphorus-31 magnetic resonance spectroscopy ( 31 P-MRS) findings in the brain in patients with bipolar disorder implicate pathophysiological role of mitochondrial DNA in bipolar disorder. The authors examined possible associa

Tryptophan hydroxylase (TPH) is the rate-limiting enzyme in the synthesis of 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT). An association study in bipolar affective disorder I or unipolar major affective disorder was performed by using a Bfa I restriction site polymorphism within intron 7 of the tryptophan hydroxylas
## Abstract While there is some preliminary evidence that the tryptophan hydroxylase I (TPH1) polymorphisms are related to Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD), it is not clear if this association is due to the high rates of suicidal behavior in this patient group. Because of the reported associat
The dopaminergic system, along with the serotonergic and noradrenergic systems, has been implicated in the etiology of mood disorders. An association study of a functional variant in the promoter region of the dopamine D2 receptor (DRD2) with bipolar affective disorder I or unipolar major affective
A recent Japanese study on the angiotensin I converting enzyme gene (ACE) insertion/ deletion polymorphism reported that both the D allele (P < 0.02) and the DD genotype (P < 0.002) were significantly more frequent in affective disorder cases than in controls [Arinami et al., 1996: Biol Psychiatry 4
