Abstract excerpt

Results of recent studies have indicated an association between voluntary alcohol intake and activities of kappa-opioid receptor systems in animal models. We assessed the possibility that genetic differences observed in alcohol preference among mouse strains are related to possible polymorphisms of the kappa-opioid receptor gene (Oprk1). We compared DNA sequences of the coding region and the promoter/regulatory...
