Abstract excerpt
Resilience to stress integrates cognitive, physiological, and behavioral adaptations to sustain performance under adversity. Genetic variation in catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT, rs4680) and angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE, rs1799752) modulates dopaminergic and renin-angiotensin signaling, influencing tissue oxygenation and fatigue resistance. We examined COMT- and ACE-promoter methylation and genotypes in...
