Abstract | BACKGROUNDS: METHODS: We genotyped eight single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) of Syntaxin 1A (STX1A), vesicle-associated membrane protein 2 ( VAMP2) and synaptosomal-associated protein 25 kDa (SNAP25) and conducted case-control studies in 1404 male ADHD and 617 male controls. Quantitative analyses were performed for genotypes and performance on the Rey-Osterrieth complex figure test (RCFT), digit span test and Stroop test in 383 ADHD males. In addition, we explored gene-gene interactions by generalized multifactor dimensionality reduction (GMDR) followed with logistic regression and analyses of covariance for verifying. RESULTS: Genotypic distribution of rs875342 of STX1A was significantly different between ADHD and controls. The SNPs, rs363039 of SNAP25 and rs1150 of VAMP2, were significantly associated with RCFT scores, while rs875342 of STX1A with digit span. We found genetic interaction models between these three genes and ADHD susceptibility as well as working memory function evaluated by RCFT. CONCLUSION: SNARE complex genes and their interactions may play a significant role in susceptibility and working memory of ADHD.
