A thorough analysis of the genetic components of addiction can be found in the 2005 Nature Reviews Genetics paper "The genetics of addictions: uncovering the genes" by Goldman, Oroszi, and Ducci. It examines the complicated relationships between multiple environmental and genetic variables that affect an individual's likelihood to become addicted.The authors go over the molecular processes that underlie the links between certain genes and genetic variations and addiction, such as those in the dopamine and serotonin systems.They also discuss the difficulties in conducting more extensive research and improving current understanding of the combination between genes and environments that affect addiction genetics. In addition to outlining potential research areas to enhance addiction prevention and treatment, the paper discusses the advancements made in identifying genetic risk factors (Goldman et al., 2005).
