The role of catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) in hippocampal function

The role of catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) in hippocampal function

<p>Catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) metabolises catechol-containing compounds, including dopamine. The aim of this thesis was to investigate whether COMT is involved in hippocampal function. This thesis also explored the role of functional polymorphisms within the COMT gene in the pathogene...
