Abstract

Purpose of Review

The present review provides a summary of the progress that genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have made in identifying the genetic variants that underlie the heritability of alcohol use disorder (AUD) and then provides a similar summary of alcohol sensitivity studies, an important endophenotype that can help to expand our understanding of the genetic architecture of AUD.

Recent Findings

GWAS of AUD have recently achieved the necessary sample sizes required to identify genome-wide significant risk loci and demonstrated that the disorder is genetically complex with many loci of small effect contributing to its etiology. Consequently, we describe how these studies have begun to explore AUD’s genetic correlations with other alcohol-related traits and with other psychiatric disorders to better understand the genetic etiology of AUD and its underlying mechanisms.
GWAS investigating alcohol sensitivity using the Self-Rating of the Effects of Alcohol (SRE) as an AUD endophenotype have struggled to make similar progress. We describe the advances that these studies have made in terms of further demonstrating the heritability of alcohol sensitivity along with limitations in terms of identifying genome-wide significant loci and what we see as the primary challenges facing such studies. We conclude with suggestions for future research and what could be achieved with larger samples.

Summary

Progress in the molecular genetic study of AUD and related phenotypes is being made. Nonetheless, significant efforts are needed to conduct GWAS of more specific AUD risk factors, such as alcohol sensitivity, to more fully understand how individual genetic loci contribute to AUD risk. In doing so, we will be better positioned to understand the etiologic relations between these AUD risk factors and how their confluence ultimately increases risk for AUD.

Bei seelischem Stress sind Checkpoint-Hemmer weniger wirksam

03.06.2024 NSCLC Nachrichten

Wie stark Menschen mit fortgeschrittenem NSCLC von einer Therapie mit Immun-Checkpoint-Hemmern profitieren, hängt offenbar auch davon ab, wie sehr die Diagnose ihre psychische Verfassung erschüttert

Demenzkranke durch Antipsychotika vielfach gefährdet

Demenz Nachrichten

Der Einsatz von Antipsychotika gegen psychische und Verhaltenssymptome in Zusammenhang mit Demenzerkrankungen erfordert eine sorgfältige Nutzen-Risiken-Abwägung. Neuen Erkenntnissen zufolge sind auf der Risikoseite weitere schwerwiegende Ereignisse zu berücksichtigen.

Hörschwäche erhöht Demenzrisiko unabhängig von Beta-Amyloid

29.05.2024 Hörstörungen Nachrichten

Hört jemand im Alter schlecht, nimmt das Hirn- und Hippocampusvolumen besonders schnell ab, was auch mit einem beschleunigten kognitiven Abbau einhergeht. Und diese Prozesse scheinen sich unabhängig von der Amyloidablagerung zu ereignen.

So wirken verschiedene Alkoholika auf den Blutdruck

23.05.2024 Störungen durch Alkohol Nachrichten

Je mehr Alkohol Menschen pro Woche trinken, desto mehr steigt ihr Blutdruck, legen Daten aus Dänemark nahe. Ob es dabei auch auf die Art des Alkohols ankommt, wurde ebenfalls untersucht.
