Article Abstract:

The implications of the 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) transporter gene (5HTTLPR) allele for eating symptoms, psychopathologic traits and platelet [3H-] paroxetine binding in 59 women with bulimic spectrum syndromes are investigated. The results showed proneness to impulsivity, affective dys-regulation and reduced central 5HTTLPR polymorphism.
