To conclude, this result suggests that Taq1A, C957T and -141C ins/del of DRD2 gene may not be associated with major depressive disorder, also may be the sample sizes too small to allow a meaningful test.
Dopamine 2 receptor gene (DRD2) polymorphism C957T (rs6277) and cathechol-o-methyltransferase (COMT) polymorphism Val158Met (rs4680) interaction was studied in 118 patients suffering from major depressive disorder (MDD) treated with ECT and 383 healthy controls.
