Emerging evidence indicates that the DRD1-BDNF-DRD3 cluster plays an important role in nicotine addiction. We have performed an association analysis of 42 SNPs within these genes with cigarette consumption in a group of 341 schizophrenia patients. The ACCG haplotype consisting of four BDNF markers (Val66Met (rs6265), rs11030104, rs2049045 and rs7103411) showed an association with the risk of smoking (p = 0.0002). Both DRD1 markers tested (rs4532 and rs686) and the DRD3 marker (rs1025398) showed association with quantity of tobacco smoked (p = 0.01, 0.005 and 0.002, respectively). Our findings are preliminary; however, they support the involvement of the DRD1, BDNF and DRD3 genes in smoking behaviour.
新出现的证据表明,DRD1 - BDNF - DRD3基因簇在尼古丁成瘾中起重要作用。我们对341名精神分裂症患者群体中这些基因内的42个单核苷酸多态性(SNP)与香烟消费量进行了关联分析。由四个BDNF标记(Val66Met (rs6265)、rs11030104、rs2049045和rs7103411)组成的ACCG单倍型显示与吸烟风险相关(p = 0.0002)。所检测的两个DRD1标记(rs4532和rs686)以及DRD3标记(rs1025398)均显示与吸烟量相关(分别为p = 0.01、0.005和0.002)。我们的发现是初步的;然而,它们支持DRD1、BDNF和DRD3基因参与吸烟行为。
