Serotonergic (5-hydroxytryptamine; 5-HT) transmission may play an important role in the treatment and/or pathogenesis of schizophrenia. Previous studies reported that several atypical antipsychotic agents have high affinities for the 5-HT 6 receptor. The 5-HT 6 receptor gene polymorphism might contr
Possible involvement of receptors in the pathogenesis of schizophrenia has been suggested. In this study we searched systematically for polymorphisms in the 5-franking region of the 1 receptor. Genetic variation in this region could reduce the expression of the gene, and this suggestion is compatibl
