One factor that appears to contribute to the heritable vulnerability to PTSD is a variation in the gene that codes for the serotonin transporter, also known as the serotonin uptake site. Having a shorter version of the serotonin transporter gene appears to increase one's risk for depression and PTSD after exposure to extremely stressful situations. </blockquote><br /> <br /> <a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/mnt/healthnews/~3/toa2m0Qk_fI/3F44">The Serotonin System Influences Vulnerability To And Treatment For PTSD</a><br /> <br /> <br /> <iframe src="http://rcm.amazon.com/e/cm?t=h0f1-20&o=1&p=8&l=bpl&asins=0275991873&fc1=000000&IS2=1&lt1=_blank&m=amazon&lc1=0000FF&bc1=000000&bg1=FFFFFF&f=ifr" style="align:left;padding-top:5px;width:131px;height:245px;padding-right:10px;"align="left" scrolling="no" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" frameborder="0"></iframe><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1748137048669269404-5112064185846345447?l=heirsptsd.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div> <p><a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/DBYfWouLsNNhpE99pEgr8eQlWpE/0/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/DBYfWouLsNNhpE99pEgr8eQlWpE/0/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a><br/> <a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/DBYfWouLsNNhpE99pEgr8eQlWpE/1/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/DBYfWouLsNNhpE99pEgr8eQlWpE/1/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a></p><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/HeirsPostTraumaticStressDisorder/~4/BSZFPp1h-Ko" height="1" width="1"/>HEIRS Health &amp; Homehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06108827715071093609noreply@blogger.com0http://heirsptsd.blogspot.com/2010/06/serotonin-system-influences.htmltag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1748137048669269404.post-27278817592082668912010-06-17T18:48:00.000-07:002010-06-17T18:48:03.782-07:002010-06-17T18:48:03.782-07:00<a href="http://www.bio-medicine.org/medicine-news-1/PTSD-3A-The-serotonin-system-influences-vulnerability-and-treatment-73636-1/">PTSD: The serotonin system influences vulnerability and treatment</a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1748137048669269404-2727881759208266891?l=heirsptsd.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div> <p><a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/85mpdMBhWZzOfNHoLTpMzvkmCgM/0/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/85mpdMBhWZzOfNHoLTpMzvkmCgM/0/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a><br/> <a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/85mpdMBhWZzOfNHoLTpMzvkmCgM/1/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/85mpdMBhWZzOfNHoLTpMzvkmCgM/1/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a></p><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/HeirsPostTraumaticStressDisorder/~4/S4BiVLOGcPA" height="1" width="1"/>HEIRS Health &amp; Homehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06108827715071093609noreply@blogger.com0http://heirsptsd.blogspot.com/2010/06/ptsd-serotonin-system-influences.html
