Journal ArticleDOI

Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder and the dopaminergic hypotheses.

TL;DR: Evidence is shown from different areas that support the idea that dysregulation in the DA system underlies ADHD, including evidences from animal models, pharmacology, brain imaging and genetics studies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Association of the Adrenergic α2A Receptor Gene With Methylphenidate Improvement of Inattentive Symptoms in Children and Adolescents With Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder

TL;DR: The findings provide clinical evidence for the involvement of the noradrenergic system in the modulation of methylphenidate action in children and adolescents with ADHD.
Journal ArticleDOI

A current update on ADHD pharmacogenomics.

TL;DR: Additional studies are required to allow for a shift from a trial-and-error approach to a more rational pharmacologic regimen that takes into account the likelihood of treatment effectiveness at the individual level.
Journal ArticleDOI

No significant association between response to methylphenidate and genes of the dopaminergic and serotonergic systems in a sample of Brazilian children with attention‐deficit/hyperactivity disorder

TL;DR: Assessment of effects of polymorphisms in candidate dopaminergic and serotonergic genes on the response to treatment in 111 patients for whom methylphenidate (MPH) was prescribed found no significant association was detected.
