Polymorphism in Variable Number of Tandem Repeats of Dopamine D4 Gene is a Genetic Risk Factor in Attention Deficit Hyperactive Egyptian Children: Pilot Study
Introduction The variable number of tandem repeats (VNTR) of the dopamine receptor D4 (DRD4) gene among humans may elucidate individual differences in susceptibility to neuropsychiatric diseases. Dopamine dysfunction may be involved with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) symptoms. In t...
