OBJECTIVES: Tardive dyskinesia (TD) is a movement disorder that is characterized by hyperkinetic movements. Previous studies have suggested that the serotonergic systems are correlated with TD vulnerability. In this study, the association between a single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) of the serotonin 1A receptor gene (HTR1A) rs6295 and TD was investigated.
METHODS: We investigated whether HTR1A rs6295 SNP is associated with antipsychotic-induced TD in 280 Korean patients with schizophrenia. Patients with schizophrenia having TD (n=105) and those without TD (n=175) were matched for their antipsychotic exposures and other relevant variables. The HTR1A rs6295 SNP was analyzed using polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based methods.
RESULTS: There was no significant difference in the distribution of genotypic (χ2=2.70, p=0.26) and allelic (χ2=1.87, p=0.17) frequencies between the patient groups with TD and without TD. There was no significant difference in total abnormal involuntary movement scale score (F=0.39, p=0.68) among the genotype group either.
CONCLUSION: Although there were no differences in genotypic and allelic frequency between patient groups with and without TD, further studies on association of TD with other SNPs of HTRA1 are needed to understand the pathophysiological mechanism of TD.
