Gene Information

Original ID1:

NM_000727

Dataset Information

Name:		12065639
Method:		Microarray
Tissue:		Frontal and motor cortices
Phenotype:		Alcohol dependence (AD)/Alcohol abuse/Alcoholism
Publication:		Mayfield et al. J Neurochem. (2002) Patterns of gene expression are altered in the frontal and motor cortices of human alcoholics. PubMed
Summary:		We used cDNA microarrays to analyze expression of approximately 10 000 genes in the frontal and motor cortices of three groups of chronic alcoholic and matched control cases. Fluorescent intensity ratios of 1.4-fold or greater in either direction (representing the 99% confidence interval) were used to indicate differentially expressed genes.
