“…There was a large negative correlation between AEA levels in hippocampus and previously published mGluR1/5 receptor concentrations (Kupila et al, 2012) in the hippocampal CA1 region (R=-0.88; Figure 2) in Cloninger type 1 alcoholics. This correlation was not seen in the control group or in type 2 alcoholics, and the difference between the three study groups was significant ( 2 =9.403, p=0.009).…”

“…In order to study the possible correlations of measured EC levels to the regulatory mGlu1/5 receptor system, Spearman correlations were calculated to determine direct correlations of EC levels to previously published mGlu1/5 receptor densities (Kupila et al, 2012). The differences in Spearman correlations between the subject groups were tested by Fisher's (z)-transformation of correlations to evaluate the overall differences, followed by a Tukey-type test to compare individual groups.…”

“…33 One confound of postmortem studies in neuropsychiatric disorders, is the presence of comorbid substance abuse, especially alcohol and drug abuse, or at least substantially higher alcohol 43 and illicit drug 44 intake in patients with psychiatric disorders. While reliable quantitative patient histories were not available in the present study, mGluR1/5 densities in the prefrontal cortex may be affected by alcohol, 45 and mGluR2 gene expression was reported to be reduced in the ACC of patients with alcohol addiction. 46 Furthermore, there is a growing body of evidence suggesting that mGluRs may be involved in drug and alcohol addiction disorders.…”
