Gene silencing by small interfering RNA Transient gene silencing was attained by transfection of small interfering RNA (siRNA) into cells using siPORT lipid transfection reagent according to the manufacturers instructions
Additionally, genetic susceptibility should not be overlooked, with twin studies indicating that genetic factors contribute approximately 3040% to comorbidity, and certain genetic polymorphisms such as 5-HT transporter gene ( SLC6A4 ) and brain-derived neurotrophic factor ( BDNF ) gene variants are associated with comorbidity susceptibility (Levy et al., 2001)
