    Annotation he review provides information on current views on individual stress resistance. It is shown that the determining factors of vulnerability or resistance to stress are: psychosocial causes, in particular social support and religion, neurobiological features of the individual, are genetically determined, and epigenetic influences. Adrenergic, hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal, serotonergic and dopaminergic systems provide adaptation of the organism to unfavorable conditions of existence. Genetic factors that are largely responsible for interindividual variability of stress resistance include: genetic predisposition (polymorphism of candidate genes of mental disorders and modulator genes), as well as intergenic interactions. Epigenetic processes are considered intermediate mechanisms, through which the negative effect of stress factors on the human genome is realized. Stress, especially in the early stages of the development of the body, modulates the activity of stress-limiting systems of the body, which can lead to mental disorders. A special role is assigned to microRNAs, considering them potential biological non-invasive markers and at the same time therapeutic targets. Understanding the molecular genetic traits that underlie stress resistance will be an important step in improving the diagnosis, prevention and treatment of stress disorders.
