CUI: C0019337
Disease: Heroin Dependence
Heroin Dependence
0.600 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE This enhancer variant had been shown to increase DRD2 mRNA expression, a possible factor in increased vulnerability to heroin addiction. 31025317 2019
CUI: C0019337
Disease: Heroin Dependence
Heroin Dependence
0.600 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE According to the allele, genotype and haplotype frequency analysis, we observed an association between HD and several DRD2/ANKK1 polymorphisms (rs1800497, rs1800498, rs1079597 and rs4648319); this was most notable in the late-onset HD subgroup. 28854834 2019
CUI: C0019337
Disease: Heroin Dependence
Heroin Dependence
0.600 Biomarker disease BEFREE Notably, a 35.8 kilobases (kb) haplotype spanning ANKK1 and DRD2 was found to be a strong protective factor for heroin dependence. 29550268 2018
CUI: C0019337
Disease: Heroin Dependence
Heroin Dependence
0.600 Biomarker disease BEFREE Reward- and memory-related candidate genes dopamine D2 receptor (DRD2) and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), as well as the opioid receptor genes (OPRM1, OPRD1, and OPRK1), have been implicated in drug dependence, but relatively little is known on their contributions to heroin dependence in populations worldwide. 28692418 2017
CUI: C0019337
Disease: Heroin Dependence
Heroin Dependence
0.600 Biomarker disease RGD Changes in Expression of Dopamine, Its Receptor, and Transporter in Nucleus Accumbens of Heroin-Addicted Rats with Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF) Overexpression. 28598964 2017
CUI: C0019337
Disease: Heroin Dependence
Heroin Dependence
0.600 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE These findings point to a role for DRD2 polymorphism in heroin dependence in the Chinese Han population, and may be informative for future genetic or neurobiological studies on heroin dependence. 27819741 2016
CUI: C0019337
Disease: Heroin Dependence
Heroin Dependence
0.600 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE The ALDH2*1/*1, ADH1B*1/*1, and ADH1B*1/*2 genotypes may interact and protect their carriers against heroin dependence and the protective effect may be varied by the DRD2 gene polymorphism. 23266708 2013
CUI: C0019337
Disease: Heroin Dependence
Heroin Dependence
0.600 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE To study the potential association between allelic variants of dopamine D2 receptor (DRD2), ANKK1 (ankyrin repeat and kinase domain containing 1), dopamine D4 receptor (DRD4), catechol-O-methyl transferase (COMT) and dopamine transporter (SLC6A3) genes and heroin dependence in Hungarian patients. 23840506 2013
CUI: C0019337
Disease: Heroin Dependence
Heroin Dependence
0.600 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE The ALDH2 polymorphism, but not the DRD2, was associated with heroin dependence. 21723677 2012

0.600 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE Using data from a study of association between heroin dependence and the DRD2 gene, we obtained estimated haplotype frequencies and the associated likelihood ratio statistic using two different computer programs, MLOCUS and GENECOUNTING. 17597526 2007
CUI: C0019337
Disease: Heroin Dependence
