Abstract

The dopamine receptor 4 gene variable number of tandem repeats (DRD4 VNTR) polymorphism is associated either with an increased risk of ADHD, or with a higher incidence rate of violent criminal behavior and aggression in the human populations. However, it cannot be excluded that the risk variants of the DRD4 VNTR polymorphism, the 7-repeat and 5-repeat (7R and 5R) alleles might be associated with the increased occurrence of violent behavior in adults with no history of ADHD.
