The Impact of Traumatic Stress on the Methylome: implications for PTSD
Description: Narrative Multiple studies report DNA methylation differences that distinguish PTSD cases from symptom-free controls after exposure to a traumatic event. The purpose of this study is to identify replicable patterns of DNA methylation that associate with PTSD, characterize cross-tissue similarities between blood and brain, and determine the degree to which these patterns change in response to effective PTSD treatment.
