Abstract excerpt

The dopaminergic neurotransmission system is one of the major factors in development of alcoholism and also contributes to anxiety and depression. In this study, the associations of the dopamine receptor type 2 (DRD2) polymorphisms with the symptoms of anxiety were analyzed. A total of 573 alcoholics and 273 controls were enrolled in the study from the Korean population. Five DRD2 SNPs, including -32869 A>G,...
