Convergence of case-specific epigenetic alterations identify a confluence of genetic vulnerabilities tied to opioid dependence

2021-06-16

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Opioid dependence is a highly heterogeneous disease driven by a variety of genetic and environmental risk factors which have yet to be fully elucidated. We interrogated the effects of opioid dependence on the brain using ChIP-seq to quantify patterns of H3K27 acetylation in dorsolateral prefrontal cortical neurons isolated from 51 opioid-overdose cases and 51 accidental death controls. Among opi...
