Human glandular kallikrein-I gene (hGK-I) is closely related to the gene of human prostate-specific antigen (PSA) and both genes are expressed in the human prostate. We have studied PSA and hGK-I mRNAs in human prostatic tissue samples from patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) or adenoca
Genetic variations in the 5-untranslated region and the coding region of the CCK-B receptor (CCK-BR) gene were investigated in healthy controls. Novel variants (-215 CโA, Leu37Phe, Arg319Glu) were found in addition to the mutations (Val125Iso, His207His, Arg215His, 2491 CโA) reported previously. In
Dysfunctions in serotonergic pathways may underlie several psychiatric disorders. The reuptake of serotonin (5-HT) from synaptic terminals is mediated by a specific transporter (5-HTT). Genetic variation in the gene coding for the 5-HTT protein might be involved in the predisposition to psychiatric
Dysfunction of serotonin systems has been implicated in schizophrenia. In the present study, the human 5-HT 1A receptor gene containing the 5 untranslated region was screened in order to detect genetic variations, through which alteration of protein function or level of expression might contribute t
