This article is an interdisciplinary study of morpho-functional characteristics and variability of genes in the neurotransmitter systems (HTR1A and SLC6A3) in young men and women with the expression of depressive symptoms.}, abstract={The materials used include: morpho-functional characteristics (height, weight, body circumferences, skinfold thickness in the trunk and the extremities, and characte-ristics of cardiovascular and respiratory systems); evaluation of depression symptoms performed with the Beck questionnaire; determination of polymorphisms of the HTR1A and SLC6A3 genes for 372 students from the cities of Samara and Saransk (170 men and 202 women aged 16-23, predominantly of Russian ethnicity.}, abstract={The results obtained are as follows: young men and women with depression symptoms are characterized by significantly different morpho-functional characteristics (p<0.05), lower adiposity and abdominal skinfold thickness, as well as a relatively higher specific metabolic rate. No differences in the frequencies of the genotypes of the neurotransmitter systems genes (DAT1, HTR1A) were found between the groups of students with or without depression symptoms. Differences in the number of individuals with the presence of depression symptoms were revealed (p<0.05) in relation to gender: these symptoms were twice as high in women (14%) as in men (7%).}, title={The study of gene polymorphisms in neurotransmitter systems (HTR1A and SLC6A3) and morphofunctional characteristics in students with depression symptoms = Badanie genowego polimorfizmu systemów neurotransmiterów (HTR1A oraz SLC6A3) oraz charakterystyka morfofunkcjonalna u studentów zobjawami depresji}, type={artykuł}, keywords={charakterystyka morfofunkcjonalna, symptomy depresji, geny, systemy neurotransmiterów, morpho-functional characteristics, depression symptoms, genes of neurotransmitter systems}, }
