Table 3.

Associations of previously implicated OPRM1 intron 1 SNPs with heroin addiction across the cohorts used in the current study (Urban Health Study, CIDR – Gelernter Study, and the Australian Heroin Dependence Study). These SNPs were reported for having nominally to statistically significant associations with heroin addiction (N=412 cases and 184 controls, comprised of European Americans or Israelis with Jewish ancestry) (12), opioid dependence (N=91 cases and 338 controls, comprised of all European Americans) (19), or heroin dependence (N=1,459 cases and 531 controls, comprised of Australians of European ancestry) (10). None of these SNPs were previously tested for independent replication. SNPs are sorted by meta-analysis P value.

a

These SNPs were not available as genotyped SNPs in the Heroin Dependence GWAS, so the following SNPs in high linkage disequilibrium were used: rs514980 as a proxy SNP for both rs511435 and rs524731 (r2=1 and D′=1 in 1000 Genomes EUR) and rs3778153 as a proxy SNP for rs3778151 (r2=0.98 and D′=1 in 1000 Genomes EUR). The best proxy for rs495491 was the other previously reported SNP rs510769 (r2=0.98 and D′=1 in 1000 Genomes EUR).

b

For rs495491, G is the minor allele in populations of European ancestry, but A is the minor allele in African Americans. The presented allele frequencies correspond to the G allele.

c

Meta-analysis was computed using the results that were available.
