Context: Genetic inheritance and developmental life stress both contribute to major depressive disorder in adults. Child abuse and trauma alter the endogenous stress response, principally corticotropin-releasing hormone and its downstream effectors, suggesting that a gene X environment interaction at this locus may be important in depression.Objective: To examine whether the effects of child abuse on adult depressive symptoms are moderated by genetic polymorphisms within the corticotropin- releasing hormone type 1 receptor (CRHR1) gene.Design: Association study examining gene X environment interactions between genetic polymorphisms at the CRHR1 locus and measures of child abuse on adult depressive symptoms.Setting: General medical clinics of a large, public, urban hospital and Emory University, Atlanta, Georgia.Participants: The primary participant population was 97.4% African American, of low socioeconomic status, and with high rates of lifetime trauma (n= 422). A supportive independent sample (n= 199) was distinct both ethnically (87.7% Caucasian) and socioeconomically (less impoverished).Main Outcome Measures: Beck Depression Inventory scores and history of major depressive disorder by the Structured Clinical Interview for DSM- IV Axis I Disorders.Results: Fifteen single-nucleotide polymorphisms spanning 57 kilobases of the CRHR1 gene were examined. We found significant gene X environment interactions with multiple individual single- nucleotide polymorphisms (eg, rs110402, P=. 008) as well as with a common haplotype spanning intron 1 (P
