Evidence for Specificity of Transmission of Alcohol and Nicotine Dependence in an Offspring of Twins Sample Heather E Volk MPH, Jeffrey F Scherrer PhD, Kathleen K Buchloz PhD, Andrew C Heath DPhil, Theodore Jacob PhD, William R True, PhD MPH

Background Alcohol dependence (AD) and nicotine dependence (ND) frequently co-occur –22.8% of ND have alcohol use disorder 1 –34.5% with alcohol use disorder are ND 1 AD and ND are both influenced by genes –50-60% of risk for AD 2-4 –30-60% of risk for smoking initiation 2,5 –58-74% of risk for smoking persistence 2,6

Background AD and ND share genetic vulnerability –Genetic Correlation (r A ) = 0.68 (95%CI ) –Unique Environmental Correlation (r E ) = 0.23 (95%CI ) 2 However, this overlap is incomplete. Risk may still be transmitted for AD only or ND only as well as for both substances together. Factors such as gender, age, and externalizing or internalizing disorders may moderate risk

Objective To test for specificity of transmission of AD and ND extending existing results on overlap of AD and ND using an offspring of twins design.

Methods (sample) Data from study of adolescent and adult offspring of twin fathers sampled from the Vietnam Era Twin Registry –730 twin fathers, 904 biologic and/or rearing mothers, 1,356 offspring –Lifetime diagnoses derived from structured diagnostic interview

Methods (measures) Twin father’s lifetime AD and ND diagnoses Offspring AD, ND, conduct disorder, panic attack, major depression, generalized anxiety disorder Maternal report of offspring attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and oppositional defiant disorder (ODD)

Methods (measures) Offspring disorders comorbid with AD or ND collapsed –Externalizing disorders: conduct disorder, ADHD, ODD –Internalizing disorders: panic attack, major depression, generalized anxiety disorder

Analysis Multinomial logistic regression to predict risk for comorbid AD and ND, AD only, or ND only 4 group offspring of twin design created for paternal AD and ND separately –Group 1: MZ/DZ affected –Group 2: MZ unaffected, cotwin affected –Group 3: DZ unaffected, cotwin affected –Group 4: MZ/DZ unaffected

Analysis Repeated multinomial logistic regression to examine effect of offspring gender, age, comorbid externalizing and internalizing psychopathology

Results Table 1: Multinomial Logistic Regression to Examine the Co-transmission of AD and ND due to Genetic Factors Comorbid AD and ND AD ND N=116 N=100 N=196 MZ/DZ AD (Group 1) 1.79 ( ) 2.09 ( ) 1.06( ) MZ unaffected, cotwin AD 1.01 ( ) 2.22 ( ) 0.94 ( ) (Group 2) DZ unaffected, cotwin AD 1.25 ( ) 1.64 ( ) 0.69 ( ) (Group 3) MZ/DZ ND (Group 1) 1.93 ( ) 0.79 ( ) 2.56 ( ) MZ unaffected, cotwin ND 1.68 ( ) 0.99 ( ) 2.21 ( ) (Group 2) DZ unaffected, cotwin ND 1.65 ( ) 0.83 ( ) 1.33 ( ) (Group 3)

Table 2: Multinomial Logistic Regression to Examine the Co-transmission of AD and ND due to Genetic Factors Adjusting for Covariates Comorbid AD and ND AD ND N=116 N=100 N=196 MZ/DZ AD (Group 1) 1.54 ( ) 2.07 ( ) 0.96 ( ) MZ unaffected, cotwin AD 0.82 ( ) 2.24 ( ) 0.82 ( ) (Group 2) DZ unaffected, cotwin AD 1.28 ( ) 1.73 ( ) 0.72 ( ) (Group 3) MZ/DZ ND (Group 1) 1.81 ( ) 0.77 ( ) 2.47 ( ) MZ unaffected, cotwin ND 1.49 ( ) 0.97 ( ) 2.04 ( ) (Group 2) DZ unaffected, cotwin ND 1.32 ( ) 0.79 ( ) 1.14 ( ) (Group 3) Male Gender 1.10 ( ) 2.45 ( ) 1.14 ( ) Household Income >$50K/year 0.74 ( ) 1.03 ( ) 0.88 ( ) Age >18 years 3.14 ( ) ( ) 3.17 ( ) Externalizing Disorders 6.91 ( ) 1.95 ( ) 3.34 ( ) Internalizing Disorders 1.91 ( ) 0.98 ( ) 2.04 ( )

Discussion Paternal AD and ND are associated with offspring AD and ND, respectively Paternal AD and ND predict comorbid AD and ND in offspring Specific genetic effects exist for transmission of AD and ND despite genetic correlation between the disorders

Discussion After controlling for genetic factors: –Age > 18 years and externalizing psychopathology increase risk for all outcomes –Internalizing disorders are associated with increased risk for comorbid AD and ND and ND alone –Male gender is associated with increased risk for AD alone
