Re: P11 Study and question on Genes

In reply to P11 Study and question on Genes, posted by Denise190466 on December 13, 2006, at 12:51:39

P11 is responsable for the expression of a certain type of serotonin receptor 5-ht1b. 5-ht1b is involved in reward, and post-synaptic 5-ht1b receptor agonists have antidepressant prperties.

Anyhow, p11 can change over time. It is sensitive to levels of stress hormones among other things. I don't think the gene changes, but expression of the gene can change.
