Association of PICK1 and BDNF variations with increased risk of methamphetamine dependence among Iranian population: a case–control study

Abstract Background Genetic factors play an important role in susceptibility to methamphetamine dependency. In this line, protein that interact with C-kinase-1 (PICK1) and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) genes are linked to methamphetamine dependence (substance use disorder). Thus, in a cas...
