Scope and Contents

Contents

Childhood abuse or neglect alters the hormonal stress response and increases the risk for suicide. Analysis of hippocampal samples from human suicide victims with a history of child abuse indicated changes in the expression of the
NC3R1
gene that did not occur in suicide victims with no childhood abuse or in people who died of other causes.
