Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the modifying effects of two candidate genes (serotonin transporter gene linked promoter region (5-HTTLPR) and methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) C677T polymorphisms) on the associations between general somatic morbidity and incidence of depression in an East Asian population with high frequencies of potential risk alleles. METHODS:With a 2-year prospective study of a community sample (N = 521) of older people (aged 65+), information on baseline number of health complaints, diagnosis of moderate/severe depressive syndrome (Geriatric Mental State), and genotypes for 5-HTTLPR and MTHFR C677T polymorphisms were ascertained. Interactions between somatic morbidity and the two genotypes were investigated for incident depression. RESULTS:Incident depression was present in 63 (12%) and was associated with worse somatic health. Significant interactions between number of somatic complaints and both genotypes were observed. For the 5-HTTLPR genotypes, the association between the number of somatic disorders and depression was significant in s/s homozygotes (chi2 = 8.80 (1 df), p = .003) but not in heterozygotes (chi2 = 0.23, p = .634) or l/l homozygotes (chi2 = 0.04, p = .840). For the MTHFR genotypes, the association between the number of somatic disorders and depression was significant in T/T homozygotes (chi2 = 4.97, p = .026) but not in C/T heterozygotes (chi2 = 1.24, p = .265) or C/C homozygotes (chi2 = 1.04, p = .307). CONCLUSIONS:These findings suggest that associations between general somatic morbidity and late-life depression are modified by at least two genes, and that elders with particular genotypes are at greater risk for onset of depression in the presence of somatic ill health.
