This study explores how genetic variations in the dopamine D2 receptor influence social behavior, particularly in relation to oxytocin. It aims to identify genetic factors affecting brain structure and function, contributing to understanding neuropsychiatric disorders.
Oxytocin (OXT) and dopamine (DA) can mediate social behavior in multiple species.
Despite social behavior shows a strong genetic component, the genes underlying this heritability remain unknown.
The central hypothesis of this proposal, based on preliminary data is that genetic variation in dopamine D2 receptor (DRD2) modulates social behavior.
The goal of this study is to tease out direct effects genetic variants of DRD2 and its interaction with OXT pathway on brain structure, function and socia…
