Abstract excerpt

Molecular heterogeneity of neuropeptide Y (NPY) and its three receptors (1, 2 and 5) has recently been discovered. NPY2R polymorphisms have been shown to be related to cocaine and alcohol dependence in European Americans. To test our hypothesis that these polymorphisms influence the smoking behavior of Japanese population, we investigated the prevalence of the rs4425326 and rs6857715 polymorphisms, which have...
