Studies using mice with beta4 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) subunit deficiency (beta4-/- mice) helped reveal the roles of this subunit in bradycardiac response to vagal stimulation, nicotine-induced seizure activity and anxiety. To identify genes that might be related to beta4-containing nAChRs activity, we compared the mRNA expression profiles of brains from beta4-/- and wild-type mice using Affymetrix U74Av2 microarray. Seventy-seven genes are significantly differentiated.
Using a zebrafish model, study demonstrates that adult zebrafish show dose-dependent acute conditioned place preference reinforcement response to ethanol or nicotine. To analyze gene expression results, microarray analysis was performed using whole brain samples and 153 genes affecting ethanol and nicotine dependence were found. This gene set comprises 140 genes showing 1.5-fold greater changes in expression in both ethanol-treated and nicotine-treated animals compared with control animals.

Alcohol preference QTL 1 spans 26931283-76931283 (NCBI Build 37) on Chr9. This interval was obtained by using an interval width of 25 Mbp around the peak marker (Build 37, MGI, http://informatics.jax.org). Phenotypically extreme HAP1/LAP1 animals (n=96) and HAP2/LAP2 animals (n=48) were screened for microsatellite markers in chromosomal regions previously reported to influence alcohol preference phenotypes. Linkage to alcohol preference, Alpq1, mapped to chromosome 9 near D9Mit4 (29 cM) in the HAP1/LAP1 set and near D9Mit90 (9 cM) in the HAP2/LAP2 set. The Alpq1 QTL interval is broad and may contain more than 1 underlying gene. Drd2 at 28 cM is a potential candidate for Alpq1.
