Association between serotonin transporter gene promoter polymorphism (5HTTLPR) and behavioral responses to tryptophan depletion in healthy women with and without family history of depression.
Abstract
BACKGROUND: Evidence suggests that serotonin transporter gene promoter polymorphism (5HTTLPR)-dependent low transcriptional activity of the human serotonin transporter gene may be a genetic susceptibility factor for depression. We studied the behavioral responses to tryptophan depletion (TD) in healthy women with and without a first-degree family history of depression and examined the relationship to 5HTTLPR alleles. METHODS: Twenty-four healthy women with a negative family history of depression and 21 women with a positive family history of depression were genotyped for the polymorphism of the 5HTTLPR and then entered a double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized crossover TD study. The effects of these interventions were assessed with measures of depression and plasma tryptophan levels. RESULTS: The TD induced a robust decrease of plasma tryptophan levels in all women irrespective of family history of depression or 5HTTLPR genotypes. The s/s genotype of the 5HTTLPR was associated with an increased risk of developing depressive symptoms during TD irrespective of family history. In contrast, individuals with the l/l genotype did not develop depressive symptoms, irrespective of family history. Finally, s/l subjects without family history showed a mood response that was intermediate between the s/s and l/l subjects, while s/l subjects with a family history of depression showed the same depressiogenic effect of TD as seen in the s/s subjects. CONCLUSIONS: The results of the present study suggest that the s-allele of the 5HTTLPR and a positive family history of depression are additive risk factors for the development of depression during TD.

“The stronger dependence on serotonin in at-risk subjects would explain why only they are sensitive to the mood effects of tryptophan depletion [34], and why individuals with a polymorphism in the serotonin transporter gene that reduces serotonin uptake are more liable to develop mood disturbance, especially following serotonin depletion [41], [42].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
