Effect of DRD4 receptor −616 C/G polymorphism on brain structure and functional connectivity density in pediatric primary nocturnal enuresis patients

Abstract The dopamine D4 receptor (DRD4) promoter (−616; rs747302) has been associated with primary nocturnal enuresis (PNE); however, its relationship with neuroimaging has not been investigated. Therefore, we assessed the effects of the DRD4 −616 C/G single nucleotide polymorphism on the gray matt...

Therefore, we assessed the effects of the DRD4 −616 C/G single nucleotide polymorphism on the gray matter volume (GMV) and functional connectivity density (FCD) during resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging in children with PNE using voxel-based morphometry and FCD methods. Genomic and imaging data were obtained from 97 children with PNE and 105 healthy controls. DRD4 −616 C/G was genotyped. Arousal from sleep (AS) was assessed on a scale of 1–8. Both the main effect of genotype and the group (PNE/control)-by-genotype interaction on GMV and FCD were calculated. Our results showed that C-allele carriers were associated with a higher AS, decreased GMV and FCD in the pregenual anterior cingulate cortex; children with PNE carrying the C allele exhibit decreased GMV and FCD in the thalamus; however, controls carrying the C allele exhibit increased FCD in the posterior cingulate cortex.
