Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: Evidence reveals that γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) receptors are involved in the development of methamphetamine (METH) dependence. The GABA receptor delta subunit gene (GABRD) might be a good candidate gene for METH dependence. In a case-control study, we investigated the association between the single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in GABRD and METH dependence in a Chinese Han population. METHODS: A...
