Description

Antidepressant and antipsychotic medication selection may be determined based on a patient's genotype for various polymorphisms within the HTR2A and HTR2C genes, which encode the serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine) receptors HTR2A and HTR2C. PMID: 15121641 Variants in HTR2A, for example c.102T>C and c.-1438G>A, have been found to affect response to selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRI) and risk for adverse drug reactions as well as response to the antipsychotic drugs clozapine and aripiprazole. PMID: 14514498, PMID: 10821369 Patients treated with antipsychotics and having significant weight gain have been positively correlated with a polymorphism in the promoter region of HTR2C, c.759C>T, where those with the -759T variant allele showed significantly less weight gain than those without this allele.
