Impulsiveness mediates the association between GABRA2 SNPs and lifetime alcohol problems.

Genes, brain, and behavior - 1 Jul 2013

Villafuerte S, Strumba V, Stoltenberg S F, Zucker R A, Burmeister M

Abstract excerpt

Genetic variants in GABRA2 have previously been shown to be associated with alcohol measures, electroencephalography (EEG) β waves and impulsiveness-related traits. Impulsiveness is a behavioral risk factor for alcohol and other substance abuse. Here, we tested association between 11 variants in GABRA2 with NEO-impulsiveness and problem drinking. Our sample of 295 unrelated adult subjects was from a community of...
