Forensic Context

A study in mice demonstrated that the SAMD5 was an overlapping differentially expressed gene from a microarray study, located on proximal chromosome 10 and overexpressed in the methamphetamine high drinking (MAHDR) line compared to the low drinking line [Hitzemann et al. DOI:10.3390/brainsci9070155].
