Genotype analysis comprising selected single-nucleotide polymorphisms within the CRHR1 and CRHBP genes in patients with schizophrenia and in a nonschizophrenic psychiatric disease control sample should allow the extraction of predictors of comorbid AUD.
To explore the relationship between stress pathway gene (CRHR1⧹CRHBP) polymorphisms and heroin dependence, nine tag single nucleotide polymorphisms (CRHR1 rs12953076, rs4458044, rs242924, rs17689966; CRHBP rs1715751, rs3792738, rs32897, rs10062367, rs1875999) of stress related genes were genotyped by TaqMan SNP genotyping assay for 524 heroin-dependent patients who were abstinent and 489 normal controls.
Genetic polymorphism rs7718461 in the CRHBP gene showed significant association (P = 0.0012) with overall pain severity during the year after MVC in regression models controlling for multiple comparisons.

Multivariate regression analysis revealed that CRHBP gene polymorphism rs3792738 had interactions with life stress during predicting the risk of heroin relapse.
One single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) (rs10473984) within the CRHBP locus showed a significant association with both remission (P = 6.0 x 10(-6); corrected, P = .0026) and reduction in depressive symptoms (P = 7.0 x 10(-7); corrected, P = .00031) in response to citalopram.
Significant associations between the maximum number of pain sites and SNPs in the CRHBP and POMC genes were also observed and a SNP in MC2R was also associated with CWP.
Our aim was to investigate the influence of genetic variants in CRHR1, CRHR2, CRH-BP and FKBP5 genes on both the vulnerability for depression and the response to antidepressant treatment.

These data indicate that CRF receptor antagonists may be useful for the treatment of the disease states where CRF is elevated such as anxiety and depression, anorexia nervosa and stroke and that ligand inhibitors of CRF-BP may be used to elevate brain levels of 'free' urocortin and other CRF-related peptides.

Association of CRHR1 and CRHBP genotypes with the following: (1) AUD; (2) a newly developed alcoholism severity score comprising 5 AUD-relevant variables; and (3) quantitative CRHR1 and CRHBP messenger RNA expression.
Our results suggest a likely role for CRH-BP in stress-related alcoholism and highlight the use of the resting EEG as an intermediate phenotype for arousal-related behaviors such as anxiety and addiction.
