The Glucocorticoid Receptor Gene (<i>NR3C1</i>) 9β SNP Is Associated with Posttraumatic Stress Disorder

Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) has been associated with glucocorticoid (GC) hypersensitivity. Although genetic factors account for 30–46% of the variance in PTSD, no associations have been found between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the GC receptor (GR) gene (<i>NR3C1</i&g...
