Neurotransmitters and suicidal behavior. The evidence from cerebrospinal fluid studiesM Asberg
Department of Clinical Neuroscience, Karolinska Institutet, Stockholm, Sweden
Ann N Y Acad Sci 836:158-81. 1997..CSF 5-HIAA determinations may also be helpful in the clinical assessment of suicide risk...
Excess tryptophan hydroxylase 17 779C allele in surviving cotwins of monozygotic twin suicide victimsA Roy
Mental Health and Behavioral Science (116A, DVA New Jersey Health Care System, East Orange, NJ 07019, USA
Neuropsychobiology 43:233-6. 2001..CONCLUSION: These results, in a small sample, suggest the possibility that the 17 779C allele of the TPH gene may be associated with an increased risk of suicide. Further studies in larger samples are needed...
Androgen receptor trinucleotide repeat polymorphism and personality traitsE G Jönsson
Department of Clinical Neuroscience, Karolinska Institute, Stockholm, Sweden
Psychiatr Genet 11:19-23. 2001..We conclude that no significant association could be found between the androgen receptor polymorphism investigated and any personality trait, although the tendencies found are worthwhile subjects for replication attempts...
No association between a promoter dopamine D(4) receptor gene variant and schizophreniaE G Jönsson
Department of Clinical Neuroscience, Psychiatry Section, Karolinska Institute, SE 171, 76 Stockholm, Sweden
Am J Med Genet 105:525-8. 2001..No significant case control differences emerged. The present results do not support a major role for DRD4 in the etiology of schizophrenia among Caucasians from Sweden...
No association between serotonin 2A receptor gene variants and personality traitsE G Jönsson
Department of Clinical Neuroscience, Karolinska Institute, Stockholm, Sweden
Psychiatr Genet 11:11-7. 2001..After correction for multiple testing, no significant differences were found. We conclude that the investigated 5-HT2A gene variants do not significantly influence personality as assessed by the KSP in the present population...
