초록

우울 장애는 유전적 요인과 함께 환경적 요인이 복합적으로 작용하는 정신 장애이다. 본 연구에서는 세로토닌 체계와 연관된 유전적 요인과 생활사건과 같은 환경적 요인이 초기 성인기 우울 장애 발현에 미치는 영향을 조사함으로써 우울 장애의 원인론에 있어 유전자×환경 상호작용을 설명할 수 있는 자료를 제시하고자 하였다.534명의 대학 신입생을 종적으로 추적 조사하여 생활사건 빈도와 중요도, 우울 척도와 불안 척도를 조사하였으며 전화 면담을 통해 DSM-IV 우울 장애 여부를 확인하였다. 최종적으로 150명이 연구에 포함되었으며 이전 연구로 확인된 TPH1 유전형과 함께 보관되어 있던 대상군의 DNA를 이용하여 SNaPshotTM 방식으로 TPH2, 5HTR2A 유전자를 추가 분석하였다. 유전자 정보와 생활사건 특성이 우울 증상에 미치는 영향을 확인하기 위해 로지스틱 회귀 분석과 상관 분석, 카이 자승 분석을 사용하였다.TPH1 유전형 중 C 대립 유전자가 존재하지 않는 집단과 달리 C 대립 유전자가 존재하는 집단에서는 생활사건 빈도가 우울 장애 유발에 유의한 영향을 미쳤다. 이러한 영향은 다른 대립 유전자나 유전형을 보이는 집단에서는 관찰되지 않았다.본 연구의 결과는 TPH1 유전형은 생활사건 이후 우울 장애 발생의 유의미한 예측 요인임을 시사한다. 이는 우울 장애의 유전×환경 상호작용에 TPH1 유전자가 작용하고 있음을 제시한다.

Abstract

Objectives: The authors purposed to present data for explaining gene-environmental interaction causing depressive disorder by examining the effects of genetic factors related to the serotonin system and environmental factors such as stressful life events in early adulthood.Methods: The subjects were 150 young adults (mean age 25.0±0.54), a part of 534 freshmen who had completed the previous study of genotyping of TPH1 gene. We assessed characteristics of life events, depression and anxiety scale and checked if they had a depressive disorder with DSM-IV SCID interview. Along with TPH1 A218C genotype confirmed in previous study, TPH2 -1463G/A and 5HTR2A -1438A/G genes were genotyped using the SNaPshotTM method.Results: In comparison with the group without C allele of TPH1 gene, the number of life events had a significant effect on the probability of depressive disorder in the group with C allele. Other alleles or genotypes did not have a significant effect on the causality of life events on depressive disorder.Conclusion: The results of this study suggest that TPH1 C allele is a significant predictor of onset of depressive disorder following environmental stress. It means that the TPH1 gene may affect on the gene-environmental interaction of depressive disorder.
