The total transcriptome including genes that are differentially expressed in cocaine addicts compared to control subjects. Post-mortem brain samples were collected from the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (dlPFC) of the cocaine addict group and the control group. To assess gene expression, RNA-seq was performed. Data taken from Supplementary Table 2. Values presented are k.diff values. Data available from GEO with accession number GSE99349."

Data from GEO GSE194368 and analyzed using GEO2R, only top gene shown. Authors identified transcriptional adaptations of GR signaling in the amygdala of humans with OUD. Thus, GRs, their coregulators and downstream systems may represent viable therapeutic targets to treat the “stress side” of OUD.

Cerebellum differential expression analysis of genotype by time effects in Pax6 mice and controls. This set contains genes for which there is an additive effect of the mutation and linear increase in both mutant and wild types through time.
Activation of the mesolimbic dopamine reward pathway by acute ethanol produces reinforcement and changes in gene expression that appear to be crucial to the molecular basis for adaptive behaviors and addiction. The inbred mouse strains DBA/2J and C57BL/6J exhibit contrasting acute behavioral responses to ethanol. We used oligonucleotide microarrays and bioinformatics methods to characterize patterns of gene expression in three brain regions of the mesolimbic reward pathway of these strains. Expression profiling included examination of both differences in gene expression 4 h after saline injection or acute ethanol (2 g/kg). Using a rigorous stepwise method for microarray analysis, we identified 788 genes differentially expressed in control DBA/2J versus C57BL/6J mice and 307 ethanol-regulated genes in the nucleus accumbens, prefrontal cortex, and ventral tegmental area. There were strikingly divergent patterns of ethanol-responsive gene expression in the two strains. Ethanol-responsive genes also showed clustering at discrete chromosomal regions, suggesting local chromatin effects in regulation. Ethanol-regulated genes were generally related to neuroplasticity, but regulation of discrete functional groups and pathways was brain region specific: glucocorticoid signaling, neurogenesis, and myelination in the prefrontal cortex; neuropeptide signaling and developmental genes, including factor Bdnf, in the nucleus accumbens; and retinoic acid signaling in the ventral tegmental area. Bioinformatics analysis identified several potential candidate genes for quantitative trait loci linked to ethanol behaviors, further supporting a role for expression profiling in identifying genes for complex traits. Brain region-specific changes in signaling and neuronal plasticity may be critical components in development of lasting ethanol behavioral phenotypes such as dependence, sensitization, and craving.
Gene expression changes in the post-mortem nucleus accumbens of chronic heroin abusers. Overall, little overlap in gene expression profiles was seen between the two drug-abusing cohorts: out of the approximately 39,000 transcripts investigated, the abundance of only 25 was significantly changed in both cocaine and heroin abusers, with nearly one-half of these being altered in opposite directions. 1050 Transcripts had different in abundance between the majority of heroin subjects and their matched controls.
Genome-wide association studies are conducted of two human cohorts, one group demonstrating nicotine dependence and another successfully quitting smoking. Study shows that some genetic components associated with the ability to quit overlap while many do not overlap. To perform the study, DNA samples were obtained from NIH volunteers and the allelic frequencies of the samples were analyzed using Affymetrix array analysis. This gene set comprises 290 genes associated with nicotine dependence.

A list of genes whose transcript abundance in the PFC changed significantly 4 hours after an acute dose of ethanol (1.8 g/kg). This list was generated using Fisher's Combined Probability test to analyze saline vs ethanol S-scores across B6 and D2 inbred strains (n=3) and 27 BXD RI lines (n=1). Statistical significance was determined using 1,000 permutations of S-score data and selecting for probe-sets with q-values < 0.05. Aaron Wolen 5-26-10.
