| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We examined effects of serotonin transporter (5-HTTLPR) genotypes on motor regulatory process, as observed during a Go/Nogo punishment feedback task. 5-HTT gene-linked promoter polymorphisms were analyzed by using lymphocytes from 60 healthy Japanese volunteers. Impulsivity was defined as the number of commission errors (responding when one should not) made during a Go/Nogo task. We found that the s/s group made fewer impulsive responses, under aversive conditions for committing such errors, compared to those in the s/l group, without affecting motor inhibition, suggesting that 5-HTTLPRs do not directly affect the behavioral regulatory process itself, but may instead exert an effect on the evaluation of potential risk. The results also indicate that under such aversive conditions, decreased expression of 5-HTT may promote motor inhibitory control.Then we found 10% DNA methylation ratio in downstream of CPG island of 5-HTTLPR in buccal cells which is less than 30% in blood samples.
