Molecular Genetic Testing in Reward Deficiency Syndrome (RDS): Facts and Fiction.

Author
Abstract
:

The Brain Reward Cascade (BRC) is an interaction of neurotransmitters and their respective genes to control the amount of dopamine released within the brain. Any variations within this pathway, whether genetic or environmental (epigenetic), may result in addictive behaviors or RDS, which was coined to define addictive behaviors and their genetic components.
