Abstract excerpt

The dopamine D2 receptor gene contains a TaqI repeat fragment length polymorphism creating two alleles DRD2*A1 and DRD2*A2. It has been previously suggested that the lesser allele, DRD2*A1, is more prevalent in individuals who are susceptible to impulsive/addictive/compulsive behaviour, for example, alcoholics, polysubstance abusers and tobacco smokers. We genotyped a series of 104 smokers and 117 non smokers and...
