Increased expression of the 5-HT transporter confers a low-anxiety phenotype linked to decreased 5-HT transmission.
A commonly occurring polymorphic variant of the human 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) transporter (5-HTT) gene that increases 5-HTT expression has been associated with reduced anxiety levels in human volunteer and patient populations. However, it is not known whether this linkage between genotype and anx...
