[Molecular genetics of alcohol dependence].

Abstract excerpt

Predisposition to alcohol dependence is affected by multiple environmental and genetic factors in complicated way. Family and twin studies estimated about 60% of hereditary rate for alcoholism. Many lines of evidence by divergent methods, e.g. gene-manipulated animals, linkage of human genome and genetic association studies, are accumulating for molecular genetic components involved in alcoholism. These studies...
