The Interaction Between Family Functioning and the PCDH9 rs9540720 Polymorphism on Major Depressive Disorder in Chinese Freshmen
University students carrying the AA genotype of rs9540720(<i>PCDH9</i>) may have a higher probability of developing MDD when they have unhealthy family functioning. The etiological mechanism of depression in university students is explained from the perspective of gene-environment interaction and provides a theoretical basis for subsequent effective identification and screening of high-risk groups for depression in university students.
