UCSD and VA researchers find possible genetic links for susceptibility to PTSD (stock.adobe.com) By analyzing the genomes of more than 250,000 military veterans, a team of scientists led by researchers at UC San Diego and the Veterans Affairs San Diego Healthcare System has identified 18 specific positions on chromosomes, known as loci, that appear to be associated with post-traumatic stress disorder. The findings validate the underlying biology of PTSD and its relationship to anxiety a...

After analyzing the genomes of more than one-quarter of a million military veterans, a team of scientists, led by researchers at University of California San Diego, Veterans Affairs San Diego Healthcare System (VASDHS), Yale University and West Haven VA, have identified 18 specific, fixed positions on chromosomes (known as loci) that appear associated with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

Study uncovers genetic similarities between PTSD and other mental health disorders Attempts to identify the genetic causes of neuropsychiatric diseases such as post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) through large-scale genome-wide analyses have yielded thousands of potential links. The challenge is further complicated by the wide range of symptoms exhibited by those who have PTSD. For instance, does extreme arousal, anger, or irritation experienced by some have the same genetic basis as the tend...
