| Abstract | Background Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is characterized by symptoms of inattention, excessive motor activity and impulsivity detected mostly during childhood. These traits are known to be controlled by monoamine neurotransmitters, chiefly dopamine, serotonin and norepinephrine. Monoamine oxidase A (MAOA) and B (MAOB), two isoenzymes bound to the outer membrane of mitochondria, are involved in the degradation of monoamines and were explored for association with ADHD in different ethnic groups. In the present study, few exonic as well as intronic MAOB variants were analyzed in ADHD probands (N = 150) and ethnically matched controls (N = 150) recruited following the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual for Mental Disorders-4th edition (DSM-IV). Appropriate scales were used for measuring the behavioural attributes. Gene variants were analyzed by amplification of target sites followed by DNA sequencing and data obtained were analyzed by population based statistical methods. Results Out of 34 variants present in the analyzed sites, only seven functional variants, rs4824562, rs56220155, rs2283728, rs2283727, rs3027441, rs6324 and rs3027440, were found to be polymorphic. rs2283728 ‘C’ (P = 3.45e-006) and rs3027440 ‘T’ (P = 0.02) alleles showed higher frequencies in ADHD probands as compared to controls. rs56220155 ‘A’ (P = 0.04) allele and ‘GA’ (P = 0.04) genotype showed higher frequencies in the male and female ADHD probands respectively as compared to sex-matched controls. Analysis of pairwise linkage disequilibrium revealed striking differences between probands and controls. Haplotype analysis revealed significantly higher occurrence of different haplotypes in the ADHD probands while some haplotypes were detected in the controls only. Higher scores for conduct problems were found to be associated with rs56220155 ‘A’ (P = 0.05) allele in the male ADHD probands. Multifactor dimensionality reduction analysis showed independent as well as interactive effects of polymorphic variants which were more robust in the male probands. Conclusions Since all the polymorphic variants analyzed were functional, it may be inferred that MAOB gene variants are contributing to the etiology of ADHD in the Indo-Caucasoid population from eastern India which merits further in depth analysis. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
