Background:  The relation between the  ATP-binding cassette subfamily B member 1  ( ABCB1 ) gene and major depressive disorder (MDD) has been studied in a local Chinese Han population. MDD is associated with the rs2032582 ( G2677T ) and rs1128503 ( C1236T ) single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of  ABCB1  but not with rs1045642, rs2032583, rs2235040, and rs2235015. This study aims to explore the potential correlations of therapeutic responses with selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) and serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs) in a local Chinese Han population.    Methods:  The study population included 292 patients with MDD. All patients were assessed at baseline and at first, second, fourth, and sixth weeks according to the 17-item Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression (HAM-D17) to determine their therapeutic responses to SSRIs and SNRIs.    Results:  In the SSRI therapy group, the genotype or allele distribution of six SNPs was not significantly different between responders and nonresponders. In the SNRI therapy group, only rs2032583 was associated with a therapeutic response to SNRIs. The C allele of the  ABCB1  rs2032583 polymorphism was negatively correlated with therapeutic responses according to logistic regression analysis.    Conclusion:  The  ABCB1 gene polymorphisms may  not be associated with therapeutic responses to SSRIs but not with SNRIs. The TT genotype of rs2032583 could be a predictive factor of improved treatment responses to SNRIs in the Chinese population. These findings should be replicated in future studies with larger patient groups.
