Gene in Ethanol Study Datasets

Gene Information

Original ID1:		L07335
Fold Change:		2.17

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.

Dataset Information

Name:		Literature Search
Method:		Literature search
Summary:		We search all human protein coding gene names and the keywords Alcohol or Ethanol or Alcoholism in the title or abstract of all PUBMED publications. For those gene name less than 3 characters or search result hits more than 100, we use the full name to search again and manually check the results to reduce false positive.
