1 Epigenetics and trauma Influence of trauma on mental health Patrick McGowan, PhD Biological Sciences, UTSC Cell and Systems Biology, Psychology University of Toronto Leuven, November, 2012 Plasticity Stress response Fearfulness Neuroplasticity Stress response Anxiety/Depression Substance abuse Suicide Life course Environmental challenges after Hanson et al., Prog Biophys Mol Bio, 2011 In search of a unifying principle in complex disease research A dynamic neural epigenome Petronis, TIGS, 2006 Is epigenetic signaling altered in suicide and childhood abuse? Suicide: Mitigating factors Tissue: Postmortem hippocampus Groups: Suicides: Males with a history of childhood abuse/neglect. Controls: Males who died suddenly of other causes (heart attack, car accident). A leading cause of death worldwide. Linked to, but not predicted by mental disorders and life events. Genetic and nongenetic factors contribute. Changes in gene expression in the brain associate with suicide. McGowan et al., PLoS ONE,
