Researchers have identified a gene variant, ADRB1, that may contribute to increased anxiety levels. This variant affects the brain’s adrenergic system, which plays a role in the body’s fight-or-flight response. Understanding the genetic basis of anxiety could lead to more effective treatments tailored to individuals’ genetic profiles, potentially improving outcomes for those suffering from anxiety disorders.
