HPA-axis multilocus genetic variation moderates associations between environmental stress and depressive symptoms among adolescents
5 Nov 2018
Abstract excerpt
Research suggests that genetic variants linked to hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA)-axis functioning moderate the association between environmental stressors and depression, but examining gene-environment interactions with single polymorphisms limits power. The current study used a multilocus genetic profile score (MGPS) approach to measuring HPA-axis-related genetic variation and examined interactions with...
