NFKB1 and post-traumatic stress disorder: We then asked (1) whether any of the PTSD risk genes overlapped with an equivalent list of independent risk genes for either CVD or T2DM: there were 36 and 15 respectively; (2) whether the associations were significant: they were; and (3) whether an informatics-based analysis might identify shared signaling pathways; they did, emphasizing the NFκB complex and downstream proinflammatory signaling.
