The aim of this study was to examine the association between the MAOA-uVNTR gene polymorphism in a homogeneous subgroups of patients with alcohol dependence categorized according to Lesch's typology.
DNA was provided from alcohol dependent (AD) patients (n=370) and healthy control subjects (n=168) all of Polish descent. The history of alcoholism was obtained using the Polish version of the Semi-Structured Assessment for the Genetics of Alcoholism (SSAGA). Samples were genotyped using PCR methods.
We found no association between alcohol dependence and MAOA gene polymorphism.
Lesch typology is a clinical consequence of the disease and its phenotypic description is too complex for a simple genetic analysis.
本研究的目的是在根据莱施分型法分类的酒精依赖患者同质亚组中,检测单胺氧化酶A基因可变数目串联重复序列(MAOA-uVNTR)基因多态性之间的关联。
提供了来自均为波兰血统的酒精依赖(AD)患者(n = 370)和健康对照者(n = 168)的DNA。使用波兰语版酒精中毒遗传学半结构化评估(SSAGA)获取酗酒史。采用聚合酶链反应(PCR)方法对样本进行基因分型。
我们发现酒精依赖与MAOA基因多态性之间无关联。
莱施分型法是该疾病的临床结果,其表型描述过于复杂,无法进行简单的基因分析。
