Variation in the oxytocin receptor gene moderates the protective effects of a family-based prevention program on telomere length.

Brain and behavior - 1 Feb 2016

Smearman Erica L, Yu Tianyi, Brody Gene H

Abstract excerpt

INTRODUCTION: Parent-child relationships with high conflict and low warmth and support are associated with later adverse behavioral and physiological child outcomes. These outcomes include shorter telomere lengths, the repetitive sequences at the ends of chromosomes that have been utilized as a biomarker for chronic stress. Our research group furthered this by exploring telomere length outcomes following a...
