abstract = {Prepartum depression is associated with early adversity,
pregnancy complications, preterm delivery, postpartum
depression, and long-term effects on child neurodevelopment.
The oxytocin (OXT) system is affected by early adverse
experiences and has been associated with depression. In the
current study, we investigated risk factors for prenatal
depressive symptoms, mainly the effects of early childhood
and adolescence trauma, in combination with the presence of
certain variants of polymorphisms of OXT and OXT receptor
(OXTR) genes. We hypothesized that early childhood and
adolescence trauma has higher negative effects in carriers
of genetic variants of the OXT/OXTR system, increasing their
risk for depression. Early in pregnancy (8–14 weeks), 141
pregnant women from a Uruguayan population were asked to
provide DNA samples and complete questionnaires that
assessed their experience of child abuse, depression
symptoms, and other variables that included demographic
information. Our results showed that $23.5\%$ of pregnant
women had depressive symptoms. Several OXT and OXTR genetic
variants were associated with higher risk of prepartum
depression only in those pregnant women who suffered
emotional abuse during infancy or adolescence. Logistic
regression (Nagelkerke's R2 = .33) revealed that women who
suffered early abuse and were carriers of the variants CC of
rs2740210 (OXT) or AA of rs237887 (OXTR) had significantly
higher risk of experiencing depressive symptoms. Antecedents
of psychiatric disorders also contributed to the risk of
depression. We conclude that emotional abuse contributes to
the risk of depression in different ways in women carrying
different OXT and OXTR genetic variants. Early detection and
closer follow-up of women with child abuse and certain OXT
genetic variants, among other risk factors, could reduce the
long-term impact of prepartum depression.},
