Role of the HPA axis and the A118G polymorphism of the mu-opioid receptor in stress-induced drinking behavior.

Alcohol and alcoholism (Oxford, Oxfordshire) - 1 Jan 2000

Pratt Whitney M, Davidson Dena

Abstract excerpt

AIMS: The present study sought to investigate the relationship between the HPA axis reactivity to stress, the endogenous opioid system and stress-induced drinking behavior. METHODS: In the present study, 74 non-treatment-seeking alcohol-dependent subjects were tested under two mood conditions, neutral and stress, in separate testing sessions. Salivary cortisol measurements were obtained following stress induction...
