Association of serotonin transporter gene polymorphisms with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) in a south Indian population
Tibrewal P, Kiran Kumar H, Shubha G, Subhashree D, Purushottam M, Thennarasu K, et al.
Indian J Med Res . 2011 Jan; 132:690-5. PMID: 21245616
Background And Objectives: Serotonin transporter polymorphisms, 5-HTTVNTR and 5-HTTLPR, have been found to be associated with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and particularly with neurotic characteristics. In the present study we looked...

Duchenne muscular dystrophy: a clinical, histopathological and genetic study at a neurology tertiary care center in Southern India
Swaminathan B, Shubha G, Shubha D, Murthy A, Kiran Kumar H, Shylashree S, et al.
Neurol India . 2010 Feb; 57(6):734-8. PMID: 20139501

Phylogenetic analysis and selection pressures of 5-HT receptors in human and non-human primates: receptor of an ancient neurotransmitter
Anbazhagan P, Purushottam M, Kiran Kumar H, Mukherjee O, Jain S, Sowdhamini R
J Biomol Struct Dyn . 2010 Jan; 27(5):581-98. PMID: 20085376
Neurotransmitter serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT) an ancient neurotransmitter, involved in several neurophysiological and behavioral functions, acts by interacting with multiple receptors (5-HT(1)-5-HT(7)). Alterations in serotonergic signalling have also been implicated in...

Evolutionary analysis of PHLPP1 gene in humans and non-human primates
Anbazhagan P, Purushottam M, Kiran Kumar H, Kubendran S, Mukherjee O, Brahmachari S, et al.
Bioinformation . 2008 Oct; 2(10):471-4. PMID: 18841245
The chromosome 18q22-23 region has been shown to be implicated in bipolar disorder (BPAD) by several studies. PHLPP1 gene, in the locus (chromosome 18q22-23), is involved in circadian pathways and...
