Childhood adversity predicts black young adults’ DNA methylation-based accelerated aging: A dual pathway model
Open accessAbstract
We expand upon prior work (Gibbons et al., 2012) relating childhood stressor effects, particularly harsh childhood environments, to risky behavior and ultimately physical health by adding longer-term outcomes – deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) methylation-based measures of accelerated aging (DNA m-aging). Further, following work on the effects of early exposure to danger (McLaughlin et al., 2014), we also identify an additional pathway from harsh childhood environments to DNA m-aging that we label the danger/FKBP5 pathway, which includes early exposure to dangerous community conditions that are thought to impact glucocorticoid regulation and pro-inflammatory mechanisms. Because different DNA m-aging indices provide different windows on accelerated aging, we contrast effects on early indices of DNA m-aging based on chronological age with later indices that focused on predicting biological outcomes. We utilize data from Family and Community Health Study participants (N = 449) from age 10 to 29. We find that harshness influences parenting, which, in turn, influences accelerated DNA m-aging through the risky cognitions and substance use (i.e., behavioral) pathway outlined by Gibbons et al. (2012). Harshness is also associated with increased exposure to threat/danger, which, in turn, leads to accelerated DNA m-aging through effects on FKBP5 activity and enhanced pro-inflammatory tendencies (i.e., the danger/FKBP5 pathway).

Racial trauma has biological impacts (central nervous system, endocrine, metabolic, immune, cardiovascular), interpersonal consequences (conduct problems, adjustment problems, externalizing problems, difficulty in romantic relationships), cognitive effects (internalizing problems, self-esteem), socioeconomic consequences (difficulty maintaining a job, unemployment, poverty), and major long-term健康?
“There are biological impacts (central nervous system, endocrine, metabolic, immune, cardiovascular), interpersonal consequences (conduct problems, adjustment problems, externalizing problems, difficulty in romantic relationships), cognitive effects (internalizing problems, self-esteem), socioeconomic consequences (difficulty maintaining a job, unemployment, poverty), and major long-term health”

The Environmental Harshness among Black Youth section links racial discrimination to poorer well-being and downstream health and health-behavior consequences; the dual-pathway discussion describes potential nervous-system effects and later health risks. The paper does not support the full list of specific interpersonal, cognitive, and socioeconomic consequences—such as romantic-relationship difficulties, low self-esteem, and unemployment—attributed to it.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
