Systematic analysis of glutamatergic neurotransmission genes in alcohol dependence and adolescent risky drinking behavior.

TL;DR: Investigating whether genetic variations in glutamatergic neurotransmission genes, which are known to alter alcohol effects in rodents, contribute to the genetic basis of alcoholism in humans found NR2A and MGLUR5 have the greatest relevance for human alcohol dependence among the genes selected.
