โœฆ Synopsis


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 124 normal volunteers, and no association was found with any TPQ trait. In the same volunteers a dopamine D3 receptor gene (D3DR) point mutation in exon 1 was genotyped. Again, no overall association between any TPQ trait and alleles or genotype was found. There was a weak association between D3DR exon I genotype and harm avoidance in males only.

Dopamine D3 receptor (DRD3) was demonstrated to have important implications in schizophrenia, because it binds antipsychotic drugs and is abundant in the limbic system of the brain. Several groups attempted to find an association between a serine-to-glycine polymorphism at codon 9 of the DRD3 gene (

Dopaminergic systems mediate reward mechanisms and are involved in reinforcing self-administration of dependence-forming substances, including alcohol. Studies have reported that polymorphisms of the dopamine D2 receptor, whose structure and function are similar to those of the dopamine D3 receptor,
