Abstract excerpt
AIM: Association between polymorphisms in GAD genes and methamphetamine (METH) dependence was investigated in the Thai population. MATERIALS & METHODS: Genotypes of rs769404 and rs701492 in GAD1 and rs2236418 in GAD2 polymorphisms were determined in 100 METH-dependent male subjects and 102 matched controls. RESULTS: The genotype and allele frequencies of rs2236418 (GAD2) were associated with METH dependence and...
