Association between the Intron 8 VNTR Polymorphism of the DAT1 Gene and Crack Cocaine Addiction.

Author
Abstract
:

This study aims to compare allele and genotype frequencies of a 30-bp variable number of tandem repeats (VNTR) polymorphism of the DAT1 gene, located at intron 8, between adult crack cocaine users and nonaddicted individuals. Due to its involvement in drug addiction, this gene is a good candidate for molecular studies.
