Ahn. Tay et al., ASSOCIATION BETWEEN ALLELE-1 OF T102C POLYMORPHISM, 5-HYDROXYTRYPTAMINE 2A RECEPTOR GENE AND SCHIZOPHRENIA IN CHINESE MALES IN SINGAPORE, Human heredity, 47(5), 1997, pp. 298-300
The T102C polymorphism at the 5-hydroxytryptamine 2a receptor (5HTR2a)
gene was studied in 101 Chinese male schizophrenics and 103 controls,
Genotyping revealed a predominance of allele 1 among schizophrenics,
This is in contrast to previous reports in Caucasians and Japanese whi
ch showed an association of allele 2 of this polymorphism with schizop
hrenia.
