pubmed:abstractText |
The susceptibility to alcoholism can be explained partially by genetic factors. Neuropeptide Y (NPY) has emerged as one potential factor contributing the development of alcoholism. A recent study indicated that the NPY gene variant producing a leucine-to-proline substitution (T to C at position 1128) was associated with 34% higher average alcohol consumption.
