Recent studies have suggested the involvement of the dopaminergic system in addictions and impulse control disorders and associations of dopamine receptor genes (DRD1, DRD2, and DRD4) and PG have been reported.

The most important development has been the discovery that loss-of-function mutations in the gene encoding the epidermal protein filaggrin increase the risk for ICD and for nickel sensitization and nickel ACD, emphasizing the importance of the skin barrier in the pathophysiology of CD.
Individuals with a TNFA-238 polymorphism are less prone and those with a TNFA-308 polymorphism are more prone to develop ICD of the hands, suggesting a protective versus a detrimental effect of the A allele respectively.
In this multicenter cohort of 269 LMNA mutation carriers, we evaluated risk factors for MVA, defined as sudden cardiac death, resuscitation, and appropriate implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) treatment.
Recent genetic studies have investigated associations between ICD and polymorphisms of genes involved in the dopamine metabolism pathway (COMT, DAT), dopamine receptors (DRD1, DRD2, DRD3, DRD4), serotonin receptors and its transporter (HTR2A, 5HTT), and glutamate receptors (GRIN2B).

In this work, we have studied the addiction-related gene ankyrin repeat and kinase domain containing I (ANKK1) in a sample of PD patients involved in a multicenter study on ICD.
It is known that ATP acting via purinergic receptors plays a relevant role on skin inflammation, and P2X7R is required to neutrophil recruitment in a mice model of irritant contact dermatitis (ICD).The present study investigated the effects of chemical irritant croton oil (CrO) upon ATP, ADP, and AMP hydrolysis in mice blood serum, and the potential involvement of P2X7R.

The results presented herein suggest that CrO exerts an inhibitory effect on the activity of ATPDase in mouse serum, reinforcing the idea that ICD has a pathogenic mechanism dependent of CD39.
