Abstract:
DNA methylations markers are associated with brain and behavioral mechanisms that underlie substance abuse disorders. These methylation markers present novel measures for predicting and/or identifying effective treatment options, risk of cancer development, risk of developing substance abuse disorders, and substance-abuse related behaviors such as binge drinking. These markers may further be useful in developing novel pharmaceuticals and treatment methodologies and provide mechanisms for following the course of an individual's treatment, risks, or behaviors over time.
