Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: Noradrenergic pathways have been suggested to play a crucial role in the motivation-reward system of heroin dependence (HD), but so far, the role of the human norepinephrine transporter (NET; SLC6A2) gene in the pathogenesis of HD has never been investigated. The purpose of this study was to examine whether the NET gene is associated with the development of HD, and whether the NET gene influences...
