BACKGROUND: Early life stress (ELS) is a well-established risk factor for psychiatric conditions across the lifespan. A growing body of evidence indicates that alterations to mitochondrial DNA may result from chronic activation of physiological stress responses in ELS and may be associated with psychiatric outcomes. Several studies have found relationships between a number of psychiatric conditions and mtDNA copy number (mtDNAcn), with emerging evidence for a role of early life stress in these associations. This study examined mtDNAcn in physically healthy young adults with and without ELS and a broad range of psychiatric conditions.
METHODS: Participants (N = 181; 69.1 % female) included those with ELS and psychiatric conditions (n = 59; ELS+Psych), ELS and no psychiatric conditions (n = 49; ELS-Psych), and with neither ELS nor psychiatric conditions (n = 73; Controls). Standardized interviews and self-reports assessed demographics, stress, and mental health. DNA from PBMCs was used as input for ultra-low coverage whole genome sequencing (ULC-WGS); mtDNAcn was quantified using the fastMitoCalc tool. ANOVAs were used to examine group differences and negative binomial regression models assessed ELS, psychopathology and mtDNAcn relationships with covariates age and sex.
RESULTS: ELS+Psych individuals had significantly greater mtDNAcn compared to Control participants (p < .05), even after adjusting for relevant covariates. There was no difference between ELS-Psych individuals and Control participants.
CONCLUSIONS: Increased rates of mtDNAcn among individuals with ELS+Psych, but not among those with ELS-Psych, compared to Controls indicates that observable effects of ELS may only occur in the presence of psychiatric symptomatology. Findings and future directions are discussed.
