Methylation of HPA axis related genes in men with hypersexual disorder

Highlights • Patients with hypersexual disorder had reduced levels of methylation in a locus of the CRH gene. • Patients with hypersexual disorder had higher (TNF)-α levels compared to healthy volunteers. • The methylation levels at the identified CRH site, cg23409074, were significantly correlated...

Zusammenfassung:Highlights • Patients with hypersexual disorder had reduced levels of methylation in a locus of the CRH gene. • Patients with hypersexual disorder had higher (TNF)-α levels compared to healthy volunteers. • The methylation levels at the identified CRH site, cg23409074, were significantly correlated between blood and four different brain regions.
