Identifying susceptibility loci for nicotine dependence: 2008 update based on recent genome-wide linkage analyses.

Human genetics - 1 Mar 2008

Li Ming D

Abstract excerpt

Tobacco smoking is a severe health hazard worldwide, as nearly one-third of the global adult population smokes tobacco products. This high prevalence highlights the importance of studying the genetic determinants of nicotine dependence (ND). To identify such genetic factors, more than 20 genome-wide linkage studies have been conducted across different populations using a variety of ND assessment approaches,...
