<h3>Context</h3>In addition to trauma exposure, other factors contribute risk for development of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in adulthood. Both genetic and environmental are contributory, with child abuse providing significant liability.<h3>Objective</h3>To increase understanding as well their interaction the PTSD by gene × environment interactions abuse, level non–child polymorphisms at stress-related FKBP5.<h3>Design, Setting, Participants</h3>A cross-sectional study examining...
<h3>Context</h3> Genetic inheritance and developmental life stress both contribute to major depressive disorder in adults. Child abuse trauma alter the endogenous response, principally corticotropin-releasing hormone its downstream effectors, suggesting that a gene × environment interaction at this locus may be important depression. <h3>Objective</h3> To examine whether effects of child on adult symptoms are moderated by genetic polymorphisms within type 1 receptor (<i>CRHR1</i>) gene....
Childhood maltreatment is likely to influence fundamental biological processes and engrave long-lasting epigenetic marks, leading adverse health outcomes in adulthood. We aimed elucidate the impact of different early environment on disease-related genome-wide gene expression DNA methylation peripheral blood cells patients with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Compared same trauma-exposed controls (n = 108), gene-expression profiles PTSD similar clinical symptoms matched adult trauma...
Chronic psychological stress is associated with accelerated aging and increased risk for aging-related diseases, but the underlying molecular mechanisms are unclear. We examined effect of lifetime stressors on a DNA methylation-based age predictor, epigenetic clock. After controlling blood cell-type composition lifestyle parameters, cumulative stress, not childhood maltreatment or current alone, predicted in an urban, African American cohort (n = 392). This was primarily driven by personal...

Abstract Background Gene expression profiling from peripheral blood is a valuable tool for biomarker discovery in clinical studies. Different whole RNA collection and processing methods are highly variable might confound comparisons of results across The main aim the study was to compare genome-wide gene profiles obtained two widely used commercially available systems - PAXgene™ Tempus™ tubes. Comparisons present call rates, variances, correlations influence globin reduction performed using...
