Forensic Context

A single-nucleus transcriptomics study of human postmortem nucleus accumbens tissue identified the TMEM178B as a protein coding gene downregulated in oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPC) in individuals with alcohol use disorder (AUD) compared to controls [Van Den Oord et al. DOI:10.1111/Adb.13250].
