MOR and COMT SNP Polymorphism and Pain

NCT00773760 · Status: UNKNOWN · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 100

Last updated 2009-08-06

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Patients with certain polymorphism in the MOR and COMT genes will display differences in their response to analgesics.

Conditions

  • Pain Relief

Interventions

OTHER

SNP genotyping

Coded blood specimens will be transported to the Department of Gene Technology TTÜ and genotyping analysis will be performed. Lymphocytes will be isolated from blood specimens using Ficol-Paq gradients, and genomic DNA isolated using a salting-out procedure. Variants of the MOR gene and other genes of interests will be performed by DNA sequence analysis of PCR-amplified DNA, using primers located in flanking intron sequence. All methods proposed are currently in operation in the respective facilities.
