Genes, stress, and depression.

Metabolism: clinical and experimental - 1 May 2005

Wurtman Richard J

Abstract excerpt

A relationship between genetic makeup and susceptibility to major depressive disorder (MDD) has long been suspected on the basis of family and twin studies. A metaanalysis of reports on the basis of twin studies has estimated MDD's degree of heritability to be 0.33 (confidence interval, 0.26-0.39...
