Nice guys: Homozygocity for the TPH2 -703G/T (rs4570625) minor allele promotes low aggressiveness and low anxiety
(2017)Background: Tryptophan hydroxylase (TPH) is the rate-limiting enzyme in the synthesis of serotonin. We examined whether the TPH2 polymorphism -703G/T (rs4570625) is associated with aggressiveness and impulsivity, and the ... -
Relapse of drunk driving and association with traffic accidents, alcohol-related problems, and biomarkers of impulsivity
(Cambridge University Press, 2018)Objective: Individual biological predispositions should play a role in risky driving behaviour. Platelet monoamine oxidase (MAO) activity, dopamine transporter gene (DAT1) and neuropeptide S receptor 1 (NPSR1) gene ... -
Association of the COMT Val108/158Met genotype with professional career and education: The Val-allele is more frequent in managers and in enterprising occupations
(ScienceDirect, 2018-01)Catechol-O-methyl transferase (COMT) is a key player in neurotransmission by catecholamines, and the functional COMT Val108/158Met polymorphism is strongly related to prefrontal reactivity and to dopamine levels. As dopamine ... -
Association between Transcription Factor AP-2B genotype, obesity, insulin resistance and dietary intake in a longitudinal birth cohort study Transcription Factor AP-2B associated with obesity
(Springer Nature, 2019)The development of obesity has a large genetic component, and the gene encoding the transcription factor 2 beta (TFAP2B) has been identified as one of the responsible factors. We investigated the effect of TFAP2B intron 2 ... -
Efficacy of intervention at traffic schools reducing impulsive action, and association with candidate gene variants
(Acta Neuropsychiatrica, 2019)OBJECTIVE: Road traffic injuries are the leading cause of death among young people. Recognition of the contribution of impulsive behaviour may help novice drivers to behave more safely. Previously a brief intervention ... -
Low cholesterol levels in children predict impulsivity in young adulthood
(2019)Objective: Severe behavioural issues such as impulsive action and suicide have since long been associated with low levels of cholesterol. While it is known that cholesterol plays a role in neural development and hence low ... -
Orexin/hypocretin receptor gene (HCRTR1) variation is associated with aggressive behaviour
(ScienceDirect, 2019-09)Orexins, alternatively called hypocretins, are neuropeptides with crucial role in maintaining wakefulness. The orexin system is thought to mediate a coordinated defense response but thus far investigated from the flight, ... -
RBFOX1, encoding a splicing regulator, is a candidate gene for aggressive behavior
(Eur Neuropsychopharmacol., 2020)The RBFOX1 gene (or A2BP1) encodes a splicing factor important for neuronal development that has been related to autism spectrum disorder and other neurodevelopmental phenotypes. Evidence from complementary sources suggests ... -
Association of FTO rs1421085 with obesity, diet, physical activity and socioeconomic status: a longitudinal birth cohort study
(2020)Background and aims Fat mass and obesity-associated protein (FTO) variants are among genetic variants frequently associated with obesity. We analyzed the association between FTO rs1421085 polymorphism and obesity, dietary ... -
Reward sensitivity, affective neuroscience personality, symptoms of attentiondeficit/hyperactivity disorder, and TPH2-703G/T (rs4570625) genotype
(Cambridge University Press, 2020)Objective: Reward sensitivity is an increasingly used construct in psychiatry, yet its possible inner structure and relationship with other affective variables are not well known. Methods: A reward sensitivity ... -
Association of orexin/hypocretin receptor gene (HCRTR1) with reward sensitivity, and interaction with gender
(Elsevier, 2020)Orexins/hypocretins maintain wakefulness, increase appetite and participate in the coordination of stress response. We have recently provided evidence on the role of orexins in aggression, showing the association of the ... -
The role of reward sensitivity in obesity and its association with Transcription Factor AP2B: a longitudinal birth cohort study
(Elsevier, 2020)Objective One factor potentially contributing to obesity is reward sensitivity. We investigated the association between reward sensitivity and measures of obesity from 9–33 years of age, paying attention to the inner ...
