Association between dopamine D4 receptor polymorphism and age related changes in brain glucose metabolism.

Association between dopamine D4 receptor polymorphism and age related changes in brain glucose metabolism.

Aging is associated with reductions in brain glucose metabolism in some cortical and subcortical regions, but the rate of decrease varies significantly between individuals, likely reflecting genetic and environmental factors and their interactions. Here we test the hypothesis that the variant of the...
