But we find lots of people making same mistakes again and again. Now scientists found a new relationship between a specific gene and those of us prone to repeatedly making the same mistakes. <BR/><BR/>From the article:<BR/><BR/>"A single genetic mutation helps to determine the extent to which certain people are doomed to repeat history. Drug addicts, alcoholics and compulsive gamblers are known to be more likely than other people to have this genetic mutation, which leaves them with fewer receptors of a certain type in the brain. These receptors — called D2 receptors - are activated when levels of the neurotransmitter dopamine drop."<BR/><BR/>To paraphrase an anti-drug commercial, "Why do you think they call it "dopamine?"Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
