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.
