Letter to the editors of Psychopharmacology: We recently published a review on genetic factors influencing responses to caffeine and consumption of caffeine (Yang et al. 2010). Unfortunately, our review went to press just before an important additional paper was published on this topic (Rogers et al. 2010). Here, we attempt to integrate the new findings from Rogers et al. with the conclusions of our review. The recently published study by Rogers et al.(2010) investigated whether single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with caffeine-induced anxiety might also affect habitual caffeine intake and whether habitual intake moderates the anxiogenic effect of caffeine. The experiment examined associations between SNPs in two adenosine receptors (ADORA2A and ADORA1) and caffeine-induced anxiety in non-consumers/light consumers and medium/heavy consumers of caffeine. Consistent with previous reports (Alsene et al. 2003; Childs et al. 2008), the researchers found an association between the T/T genotype of rs5751876 (p= 0.002) and caffeine-induced anxiety. Similar results were found for rs3761422 (p= 0.004), which is in strong linkage disequilibrium with rs5751876. There were no associations with other SNPs in the eight ADORA2A loci (α=0.00625, adjusted for multiple testing) or the seven ADORA1 loci (α= 0.00714) tested. However, this effect was moderated by habitual consumption. All non-consumers/light consumers exhibited significant increases in anxiety after caffeine while medium/heavy consumers did not, regardless of genotype. Contrary to their hypothesis, total caffeine consumption did not differ among different genotypes. Thus, it appears that while rs5751876 is associated with anxiety after caffeine, this effect may be moderated by habitual consumption such that regular consumers develop tolerance to the anxiogenic effects of caffeine. The authors conclude that susceptibility to caffeine-induced anxiety does not appear to influence levels of habitual caffeine intake.These findings corroborate some previous findings (Childs et al. 2008, Alsene et al. 2003), but are inconsistent with another study (Cornelis et al. 2007). The association between rs5751876 T/T genotype and caffeine-induced anxiety is consistent with reports by Childs et al.(2008) and Alsene et al.(2003); however, the lack of association between this genotype and caffeine consumption is not consistent with findings reported by Cornelis et al.(2007), who found that rs5751876 T/T individuals, particularly smokers, consumed less caffeine. The two studies were conducted in very different populations: the Rogers study recruited healthy Caucasian Europeans with mean age of 30–35 years, whereas the Cornelis study tested Costa Rican survivors of myocardial infarction with mean age of 56–57 years. Therefore, other factors such as age and survival differences may have contributed to the observed effects of ADORA2A genotype on caffeine consumption. The finding that frequent consumers of caffeine report less anxiety than lighter consumer, regardless of genotype, can be explained by several factors. First, in heavy caffeine consumers, the potential anxiogenic effects of acute doses of the drug may be masked by presence of, and relief from, caffeine
