Reference Tested Markers Statistical Values/Author Comments Result Category Comment on Study
Pae, C. U., 2006 Other variant: SOD2_Ala-9Val This preliminary data suggests that at least in the Korean population, the Ala-9Val MnSOD polymorphism is not associated with the development of mood disorders or their clinical parameters. However, more study with a larger population sample will be needed. Negative Comment on Study
Fullerton, J. M.,2010 SNP: rs4880, rs5746136
Haplotype: rs3792797 - rs8177435 - rs5746136 - rs4880(), rs3792797 - rs4880(), rs5746136 - rs4880(T-G)
We provide evidence that haplotypes within SOD2 are associated with increased risk for bipolar disorder and that an interaction at both the genotype and haplotype level between SOD2 and GPX3 further increases disease risk. Positive Comment on Study
