pubmed:abstractText |
Antidepressant efficacy of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) has been shown to depend on functional polymorphisms within the promoter region of the serotonin transporter gene (5-HTTLPR). This gene gives rise to a biallelic polymorphism designated long (l) and short (s). Homozygosity for the long variant (ll-genotype) is associated with a two times more efficient 5-HT uptake compared to the s/l- or s/s-genotype. Paired pulse transcranial magnetic stimulation is a feasible tool in detecting changes of motor cortex excitability induced by SSRIs.
