Özet
Background and objective: Serotonin plays an important role in the pathophysiology of aggressive behavior. Low serotonin levels and altered functions of serotonin receptors affect suicidal behavior. TPH-1, TPH-2 and SLC6A4 genes have important roles in serotonin production and degradation pathways. In this study, polymorphic variants of the TPH-1, TPH-2 and SLC6A4 genes, rs1800532, rs7305115, rs6355 and rs1386494, were investigated in 100 completed suicides and 100 healthy individuals.
