Popis: | Introduction: Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the BDNF, COMT, CBR1 and CCK genes have been associated with the process of fear extinction in humans. Since fear extinction plays a key role in recovering from psychological trauma, there is a possibility that these genes modulate the risk of developing post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Objective: To assess unilocus and multilocus associations between SNPs in the BDNF, COMT, CBR1 and CCK genes and the risk of developing PTSD. Materials and methods: 129 inhabitants of the municipality of Itagüí, Colombia, who had experienced psychological trauma at least once, were genotyped for these polymorphisms (38 cases of PTSD and 91 controls). Logistic regression was used to perform unilocus and multilocus association tests for single SNPs and existing SNP-SNP genotypic combinations. Results: No unilocus associations were found, but interactions between the BDNF and CBR1 genes and between the COMT and CCK genes were observed. Of these interactions, the genotypic combinations that behaved as risk factors were AG-AA (OR=13.52, p |
