Gene-Gene-Environment Interactions of Serotonin Transporter, Monoamine Oxidase A and Childhood Maltreatment Predict Aggressive Behavior in Chinese Adolescents
Open accessAbstract
Gene-environment interactions that moderate aggressive behavior have been identified independently in the serotonin transporter (5-HTT) gene and monoamine oxidase A gene (MAOA). The aim of the present study was to investigate epistasis interactions between MAOA-variable number tandem repeat (VNTR), 5-HTTlinked polymorphism (LPR) and child abuse and the effects of these on aggressive tendencies in a group of otherwise healthy adolescents. A group of 546 Chinese male adolescents completed the Child Trauma Questionnaire and Youth self-report of the Child Behavior Checklist. Buccal cells were collected for DNA analysis. The effects of childhood abuse, MAOA-VNTR, 5-HTTLPR genotypes and their interactive gene-gene-environmental effects on aggressive behavior were analyzed using a linear regression model. The effect of child maltreatment was significant, and a three-way interaction among MAOA-VNTR, 5-HTTLPR and sexual abuse (SA) relating to aggressive behaviors was identified. Chinese male adolescents with high expression of the MAOA-VNTR allele and 5-HTTLPR "SS" genotype exhibited the highest aggression tendencies with an increase in SA during childhood. The findings reported support aggression being a complex behavior involving the synergistic effects of gene-gene-environment interactions.

There was a three-way interaction: MAOA-5-HTTLPR-Sexual Abuse (beta=0.127, t = 2.458, p = 0.014).
“Three-way interaction: MAOA-5-HTTLPR-Sexual Abuse (beta=0.127, t = 2.458, p = 0.014)”
From Genetics of child aggression, a systematic review (2024) · cites this paper as Zhang [51]
The Results section (Table 4; page not provided) reports a significant MAOA–5-HTTLPR–sexual abuse interaction with p = 0.014. The citing sentence omits the negative signs: the paper reports β = −0.127 and t = −2.458, not positive values. (LLM, conf=0.94)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredHigh MAOA activity (3.5, 4, 5 R) showed a significant SA x 5-HTTLPR interaction (beta=0.327, t = 3.483, p = 0.001).
“High MAOA activity (3.5, 4, 5 R) -> significant SA x 5-HTTLPR (beta=0.327, t = 3.483, p = 0.001)”
From Genetics of child aggression, a systematic review (2024) · cites this paper as Zhang [51]
The Results section reports a significant sexual abuse (SA) × 5-HTTLPR interaction in the high-MAOA-activity group, and Genetic Analysis defines that group as carriers of the 3.5-, 4-, or 5-repeat alleles. However, the reported β and t are −0.327 and −3.483, not the positive values in the claim; p = 0.001 matches. (LLM, conf=0.90)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredSome studies failed to report a significant main effect of 5-HTTLPR on aggressive behaviors but demonstrated a significant gene-gene interaction on behavior.
“Although some studies failed to report a significant main effect of 5-HTTLPR on aggressive behaviors, they demonstrated a significant gene-gene interaction on behavior.”
From Genetics of child aggression, a systematic review (2024) · cites this paper as [51]
The Results section reports no significant association between 5-HTTLPR alone and adolescent aggression. It reports a significant three-way interaction involving MAOA, 5-HTTLPR, and sexual abuse, but not a significant gene–gene interaction on its own; the Discussion explicitly says the authors failed to find that two-gene effect. Page numbers were not supplied in our copy. (LLM, conf=0.88)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredSeveral studies on European children and adolescents and Chinese adolescents did not report a significant main effect of 5-HTTLPR on aggressive behaviors and related phenotypes.
“Several studies on European children and adolescents [78, 89] and Chinese adolescents [51] did not report a significant main effect of 5-HTTLPR on aggressive behaviors and related phenotypes.”

Males with high MAOA activity, 5-HTTLPR-SS and increased SA had highest aggression.

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.
