Dataset Information

Name:		17451403
Method:		Microarray and QTL
Tissue:		Nucleus accumbens, frontal cortex, amygdala, hippocampus, and striatum
Phenotype:		Alcohol Preference, alcohol-preferring, alcohol-nonpreferring
Publication:		Carr et al. Alcohol Clin Exp Res. (2007) Identification of candidate genes for alcohol preference by expression profiling of congenic rat strains. PubMed
Summary:		A highly significant quantitative trait locus (QTL) on chromosome 4 that influenced alcohol preference was identified by analyzing crosses between the iP (inbred alcohol-preferring) and iNP (inbred alcohol-nonpreferring) rats. Congenic strains in which the iP chromosome 4 QTL interval was transferred to the iNP (NP.P) exhibited the expected increase in alcohol consumption compared with the iNP background strain. Analyses within individual brain regions that focused on genes within the QTL interval detected differential expression in all 5 brain regions; a total of 35 genes were detected in at least 1 region, ranging from 6 genes in the nucleus accumbens to 22 in the frontal cortex.
