Association between harmful alcohol consumption behavior and dopamine transporter (DAT1) gene polymorphisms in a male Finnish population.

Psychiatric genetics - 1 Jun 2009

Lind Penelope A, Eriksson C J Peter, Wilhelmsen Kirk C

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Ethanol-induced dopamine (DA) release in the mesolimbic system may reinforce excessive alcohol intake and the progression of alcohol dependence. Within this reward system, the DA transporter (DAT1) plays a key role in the regulation of dopaminergic neurotransmission through presynaptic DA reuptake. OBJECTIVE: This study investigated whether DAT1 genetic variation was associated with either alcohol...
