Abstract
Provided herein is a method of assessing the susceptibility of a subject to, or aiding the diagnosis of, an anxiety disorder or depression, the method including determining whether the subject has a haplotype including rs3216799, rs6814934, rs7658048, rs2070950 and rs2070951 with respective alleles '+CT, 'C', ‘T', ‘C’ and ‘C’. Also provided is a kit of parts or solid substrate for use in assessing the susceptibility of a subject to an anxiety disorder or depression, the kit including or the solid substrate having attached thereto one or more nucleic acid molecules that hybridize selectively to a genomic region encompassing any two or more SNPs selected from the group consisting of rs3216799, rs6814934, rs7658048, rs2070950 and rs2070951, and/or that hybridize selectively to a genomic region encompassing two or more polymorphic sites in linkage disequilibrium with any one or more SNPs selected from rs3216799, rs6814934, rs7658048, rs2070950 and rs2070951.
