The genetic epidemiology of cannabis use, abuse and dependence.

Addiction (Abingdon, England) - 1 Jun 2006

Agrawal Arpana, Lynskey Michael T

Abstract excerpt

AIMS: The genetic etiology of cannabis use, abuse and dependence has elicited significant interest from genetic epidemiologists. METHODS: Genetically informative studies, including family, twin and adoption studies that have examined the role of genetic and environmental influences on the various stages of cannabis involvement, and the genetic relationship between cannabis, licit drugs and other hard drugs, are...
