BACKGROUND: Stathmin1 (Stmn1) is a protein highly expressed during the development of the central nervous system. The phosphorylation of Stmn1 involves microtubule dynamics, so Stmn1 plays a vital part in neurite outgrowth and synaptic plasticity. Previous studies reported that METHODS: A total of 129 healthy Han Chinese were genotyped for RESULTS: In the present sample, rs182455 CC, CT, and TT genotypes were found in 56 (43.41%), 65 (50.39%) and 8 (6.20%) cases, respectively. The genotype distribution did not deviate from Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (χ CONCLUSIONS: The findings suggest that rs182455
