Profiling Neuronal Methylome and Hydroxymethylome of Opioid Use Disorder in the Human Orbitofrontal Cortex
2022-09-15
Abstract excerpt
Opioid use disorder (OUD) is influenced by genetic and environmental factors. While recent research suggests that there are epigenetic disturbances in OUD, these studies were limited to DNA methylation (5mC). DNA hydroxymethylation (5hmC) has been understudied in psychiatric disorders and addiction, despite being highly enriched in the brain where it regulates critical functions, including neural plasticity. Here,...
