NCK2 is significantly associated with opiates addiction in African-origin men.

yes

Text

We found a genome-wide significant association between SNP rs2377339 and opiates dependence in African-origin men. The NCK2 gene that contains SNP rs2377339 also achieved the genome-wide significance for opiates dependence at the gene level. For the addiction of the other five substances, nicotine dependence had the most significant association but not significant at the genome-wide level.
