Abstract

We aimed to investigate the association between genetic factors of SNPs dopamine transporter (DAT) and serotonin transporter (SERT) availabilities in healthy controls. The study population consisted of healthy controls with screening 123I-FP-CIT single-photon emission computed tomography. Specific binding of 123I-FP-CIT regarding DAT and SERT was calculated using a region of interest analysis. VOI template was applied to measure specific binding ratios (SBRs) of caudate nucleus, putamen, striatum, midbrain, and pons. One hundred sixty healthy controls (male 106, female 54, 61.0 ± 11.5 years) were included in this study. Sex difference did not exist in DAT availabilities of caudate nucleus (p = 0.5344), putamen (p = 0.5006), and striatum (p = 0.5056). However, male subjects had higher SERT availabilities of both midbrain (p = 0.0436), and pons (p = 0.0061). Therefore, we analyzed the effect of SNP on DAT availabilities of subjects in all, and that on SERT availabilities of males and females separately. None of 19 SNPs included in this study showed the effect on DAT availabilities. However, rs591323 in Fibroblast Growth Factor 20 on chromosome 8 had a significant impact on SERT availability of both midbrain (p = 0.0056) and pons (p = 0.0007). SNP rs591323 of risk loci for Parkinson's disease is associated with SERT availability of healthy male subjects.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 19 May 2018.
All research outputs
#20,494,940
of 23,058,939 outputs
Outputs from Annals of Nuclear Medicine
#485
of 636 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#288,304
of 328,266 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Annals of Nuclear Medicine
#7
of 10 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,058,939 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 636 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 2.4. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 328,266 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 10 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has scored higher than 3 of them.
