Association analysis of the 5-HT6 receptor polymorphism C267T in Alzheimer's disease

Abstract

Serotonergic dysfunction has been implicated in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD). This association study explores whether the serotonin 6 receptor (5-HT6) polymorphism (C267T) is a susceptibility factor for AD. Statistical analysis showed a significant difference in the genotype and gene frequencies between the AD group and the normal controls (P = 0.006; and P = 0.023, respectively). These findings indicate that the 267C allele of the 5-HT6 gene is a risk factor for AD.
