Global deletion of <i>Malat1</i> alters alcohol consumption in a sex-specific manner

2026-06-24

Abstract excerpt

Alcohol use disorder (AUD) is a widespread psychiatric condition, yet the molecular mechanisms underlying its development remain poorly understood. While prior studies have largely focused on protein-coding genes, long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) remain underexplored in AUD. Malat1 , a highly abundant and evolutionarily conserved lncRNA, is elevated in post-mortem brain tissue of human AUD subjects and rodents chro...
