A recent study reported a possible association between allele 1 of the dopamine D 3 receptor gene and bipolar affective disorder using the haplotype relative risk approach. In attempt to replicate these findings, we used similar family-based methods, such as the Haplotype-Based Haplotype Relative Ri

Genetic factors seem to play an important role in the pathogenesis of affective disorder. The candidate gene strategies are being used, among others, to identify the genes conferring vulnerability to the disease. The genes coding for the receptors of gammaaminobutyric acid (GABA) have been proposed
reported the existence of an association between schizophrenia and homozygosity of a BUZZ polymorphism in the first exon of the dopamine D3 receptor (DRDS) gene. In response to this report, further studies were conducted; however, these studies yielded conflicting results. In the present study, we e
## Recent studies in healthy controls suggest an association between novelty-seeking (NS) and the dopamine D4 receptor (DRD4) gene. In this study, we further investigated the relationship between genes implicated in dopamine as well as serotonin neurotransmission and personality traits in bipolar
