RESUMEN

A BDNF rs6265 [A/A] by gender by cannabis use interaction has been associated with age of onset of psychosis (AoP). We examined the gender and cannabis use-adjusted association between BDNF rs6265 [G>A] and AKT1 rs2494732 [T>C] and AoP. Data from 167 Caucasians on AoP and age at first regular cannabis use were collected. Kaplan-Meier and Cox regression analyses were conducted. A trend level gene-gender interaction effect was observed for the BDNF rs6265 A/A genotype, controlling for age at first regular cannabis use. Larger collaborative research projects are required to further investigate this effect.
