A118G mu opioid receptor polymorphism among drug addicts in Malaysia.

Journal of integrative neuroscience - 1 Mar 2012

Nagaya Devaki, Ramanathan Surash, Ravichandran Manickam, Navaratnam Visweswaran

Abstract excerpt

Drug addiction is an important social problem in many countries. Genetic and environmental factors contribute to the predisposition of drug addiction. Genetic variations at the μ opioid receptor (OPRM1) gene locus have been associated with opiate addiction. The present study aims to delineate the frequency of A118G allele of OPRM1 among Malaysian subjects. The frequency of A allele and G allele were 51% and 49%,...
