Abstract excerpt

INTRODUCTION: Dopamine systems in the CNS are decisively implicated in the motivational and rewarding properties of nicotine. The dopamine D2 receptor (DRD2) plays a pivotal role by promoting these properties, making this gene a good candidate for association studies. Several single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have been described to influence the expression of DRD2. The amount of expressed DRD2 will finally...
