    ABSTRACT: Substance use disorders (SUDs, including alcohol, cannabis, opioids, and tobacco) represent significant public health challenges. The estimated heritability of SUDs is ~50% and many individuals experience multiple SUDs concurrently. Studies have demonstrated the existence of genes shared across multiple SUDs, and identifying these SUD-shared genes is critical to developing novel prevention and treatment strategies. Here, we conducted the largest cross SUD meta-analysis to date to identify SUD-shared genes using samples genetically similar to 1000 Genomes Project European (1kg-EUR-like), African (1kg-AFR-like), and American mixed (1kg-AMR-like) populations. We defined variants that had the same direction of effects across different SUDs (i.e., concordant variants) as SUD-shared. I

Discuss with your doctor

  • Genetic predisposition to substance use disorder Moderate

    rs10822179 T allele carriers show increased substance use disorder risk (effect size 5.822, p=6e-9 in n=1,458,999)

Screening

  • Substance use disorder warning signs Moderate

    Genetic predisposition may warrant increased vigilance for early signs of substance use disorder

    Monitor for increased interest in substances, problematic use patterns; seek early intervention if concerns arise
