Gene in Ethanol Study Datasets
Gene Information
Original ID1:AB020675
Fold Change:-3.15
Dataset Information
Name:15236863
Method:Microarray
Tissue:Prefrontal cortex
Phenotype:Alcohol dependence (AD)/Alcohol abuse/Alcoholism
Publication:Iwamoto et al. Neurosci Res. (2004) Decreased expression of NEFH and PCP4/PEP19 in the prefrontal cortex of alcoholics. PubMed
Summary:We have performed oligonucleotide microarray analysis in postmortem prefrontal cortices of alcoholics. Among about 12,000 genes represented on microarray, a total of 79 genes showed differential expression changes in alcoholics compared with control subjects, consisting of 54 up- and 25 down-regulated genes.
Gene Information
Original ID1:N53741
Fold Change:0.69
P Value:2.00E-03
Tissue:Nucleus accumbens
Dataset Information
Name:15816859
Method:Microarray
Tissue:Prefrontal cortex and nucleus accumbens
Phenotype:Alcohol dependence (AD)/Alcohol abuse/Alcoholism
Publication:Flatscher-Bader et al. J Neurochem.(2005) Alcohol-responsive genes in the frontal cortex and nucleus accumbens of human alcoholics. PubMed
Summary:Genes with a mean fold change > 1.5 or < 0.7 were selected and annotated. Values are taken from microarray analysis and represent mean ratios of alcoholic cases compared with matched control cases(n = 6). P values were from t-test.
