ROLE OF DRD4 GENE POLYMORPHISM OF DOPAMINERGIC SYSTEM IN PROGRESS AND BEHAVIOURAL STEREOTYPES OF ETHNICALLY VARIOUS COHORTS OF STUDENTS
Abstract
It is shown that the number of the students with various alleles of DRD4 gene in the genotype significantly differs depending on an ethnic origin and a course. On the 1stcourse among Slavs (Russians, Ukrainians and Belarusians) the number of students with DRD4*7R genotype made 19,4 %, and at the 5-6th course the number of such students decreased to 3,5 %. The analysis of progress showed that such «selection» of carriers of DRD4*7R allele is caused by low progress and the subsequent expel of these students. Besides, it was revealed persons with a similar genotype differed in the antisocial behavior increased by alcohol consumption, among them the narcomania and a toxicomania in this connection many of them were deducted also for this reason. Among Finno-Ugrian and Mongoloid groups of students the carriers of DRD4*7R allele of such pattern are registered. Research is undertaken with financial support of RSSF, projects 15-06-10190 and 13-06-00709.
