Depression and self-medication with nicotine: the modifying influence of the dopamine D4 receptor gene.

Health psychology : official journal of the Division of Health Psychology, American Psychological Association - 1 Jan 1998

Abstract excerpt

This study evaluated whether there are genetic subgroups of depressed individuals who are more or less predisposed to engage in self-medication smoking practices. Smokers (N = 231) completed self-report questionnaires of depression and smoking practices and were genotyped for the dopamine D4 rece...
