PY - 2017 DA - 2017/05/02 TI - Reduced vagal tone in women with the FMR1 premutation is associated with FMR1 mRNA but not depression or anxiety JO - Journal of Neurodevelopmental Disorders SP - 16 VL - 9 IS - 1 AB - Autonomic dysfunction is implicated in a range of psychological conditions, including depression and anxiety. The fragile X mental retardation-1 (FMR1) premutation is a common genetic mutation that affects ~1:150 women and is associated with psychological vulnerability. This study examined cardiac indicators of autonomic function among women with the FMR1 premutation and control women as potential biomarkers for psychological risk that may be linked to FMR1.
