Abstract

Six single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the KCNK2 gene were investigated for their association with major depressive disorder (MDD) and treatment efficacy in 590 MDD patients and 441 controls.

Evaluating the Sequenced Treatment Alternatives to Relieve Depression (STAR⁎D) dataset, we confirmed our findings.
