Genetic Risk for Psychiatric Disorders and Telomere Length

16 Oct 2018

Abstract excerpt

Background: Previous studies have revealed associations between psychiatric disorder diagnosis and shorter telomere length. Here, we attempt to discern whether genetic risk for psychiatric disease, or use of pharmacological treatments (i.e. antidepressants), predict shorter telomere length and risk for ageing-related disease in a UK population sample. Methods: DNA samples from blood were available from 351...
