Further studies addressing the identification of susceptibility genes for PTSD, like polymorphisms in the dopamine transporter gene [34] and in the promoter region of the 5-HT transporter gene [35], would greatly increase the understanding of stress-related disorders and contribute to the comprehension of their molecular basis and distinct neuroendocrine signature in individuals who report early life stress (ELS). The gene discussed is SLC6A3; the disease is post-traumatic stress disorder.
