Serotonin and severity of attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and autism spectrum disorder (ASD) symptoms
In the study to examine the association between a common serotonin transporter gene (SLC6A4) polymorphism 5-HTTLPR/rs25531 with severity of attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and autism spectrum disorder (ASD) symptoms, researchers at the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences, Stony Brook University, showed that the 5-HTTLPR/rs25531 polymorphism or its correlates may modulate severity of ADHD and ASD symptoms in children with ASD, but in different ways. These tentative, hypothesis-generating findings require replication with larger independent samples(28).
