A Functional Polymorphism in the DRD1 Gene, That Modulates Its Regulation by miR-504, Is Associated with Depressive Symptoms

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to examine a possible association between depressive symptoms and a functional polymorphism (rs686) that modulates the regulation of DRD1 gene by miR-504. METHODS: A total of 239 young Colombian subjects were evaluated with the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ...

description OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to examine a possible association between depressive symptoms and a functional polymorphism (rs686) that modulates the regulation of DRD1 gene by miR-504. METHODS: A total of 239 young Colombian subjects were evaluated with the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) scale and genotyped for the rs686 polymorphism. A linear regression model, corrected by age and gender, was used. RESULTS: A significant association between the rs686 polymorphism and PHQ-9 scores was found, under a dominant genetic model (p=0.0094). CONCLUSION: These results provide novel evidence about the growing role of inherited variants in binding sites for brain-expressed miRNAs on depressive symptomatology.
