Description
In the present study, we evaluated the impact of the BDNF Val66Met polymorphism on individual differences in personality traits in a sample of healthy volunteers in relation to other common gene variants thought to be involved in the pathophysiology of affective disorders, such as the serotonin transporter promoter polymorphism (5-HTTLPR) and a variable number of tandem repeat polymorphism of the dopamine transporter gene (DAT VNTR).
