BACKGROUND: Child abuse is a risk factor for mood disorders, and linked to decreased DNA methylation (DNAm) of FKBP5 intron 7 through interactions with the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs1360780. However, no study has investigated which specific subtypes of child abuse are related to decreased DNAm of FKBP5 intron 7 in mood disorders. We therefore aimed to examine the relationship among various subtypes...
