Moreover, the analysis of 2 separate MDEs concerning a same patient revealed comparable results for the expression of CREB1, HSPA2, HTR1B, NRG1 and TPH1.
343 subjects (Caucasian, African-American, Hispanic) presenting with a Major Depressive Episode were genotyped for polymorphisms A218C in intron 7 and A-6526G in the promoter region of TPH1, and monitored for suicide attempts for up to one year.

The possible association of the A218C tryptophan hydroxylase (TPH) gene variant with the antidepressant activity of paroxetine was investigated in a sample of 121 inpatients affected by a major depressive episode and treated with paroxetine 20-40 mg with either placebo or pindolol in a double blind design for 4 weeks.
