Journal ArticleDOI

Significant association of the neurexin-1 gene (NRXN1) with nicotine dependence in European- and African-American smokers

TL;DR: The neurexin-1 gene represents a strong candidate for involvement in the etiology of ND, based on findings that NRXN1 has significant association with ND in two independent samples, recent findings that it plays an important role in synaptic development, and the previous report of association.
Journal ArticleDOI
