Nicotine dependence and genetic variation in the nicotinic receptors.

Drug and alcohol dependence - 1 Oct 2009

Bierut Laura Jean

Abstract excerpt

Technological advances have led to the discovery of genetic variants that contribute to many illnesses including nicotine dependence. A multi-stage model of the development of nicotine dependence underlies these genetic studies, and it includes a progression through several stages of smoking behavior from never smoking to nicotine dependence. The final step in this model of dependence is the progression from...
