Abstract

For six forms of endogenous psychosis, causal agencies were sought to establish endogenous, physical, and mental provocation. Endocrine causes were found most frequently, 17.5%, in mixed bipolar disorders, followed by cycloid psychoses, 8.5%, which in this respect appear to be closer to the mixed bipolar psychoses, than the unipolar forms at 4.4%. Among the physical causes, the difference in affective psychoses is not particularly great. Cycloid psychoses head the list at 9%. Among the mental causes, pure phase psychoses account for the greatest number, 12.7%, by a wide margin. The three unsystematic forms of schizophrenia revealed a slender link with their causes. Clear distinctions among the causes of the six forms were thus demonstrated.

Integrative multi-omics identifies DOC2A as a novel pharmacological target for bipolar disorder.

BACKGROUND: Current bipolar disorder (BD) therapies suffer from limited efficacy and adverse effects, necessitating mechanistically grounded targets. METHODS: We integrated BD genome-wide association study data (158,036 cases; 2,796,499 controls) with brain proteomics (ROSMAP and Banner dorsolateral prefrontal cortex, n = 376 and 152) to perform proteome-wide association studies (PWAS). Bayesian colocalization and summary-data-based Mendelian randomization (SMR) prioritized causal genes. Cell-type-specific transcriptomics validated dysregulation in iPSC-derived neurons, astrocytes, and postmortem hippocampus/prefrontal cortex. Weighted gene co-expression networks (WGCNAs), functional enrichment, and molecular docking assessed functional pathways and druggability. RESULTS: PWAS identified eight BD-associated genes (false discovery rate < 0.05), with DOC2A emerging as the top candidate. Colocalization (H4 > 0.8) and SMR supported a causal association of DOC2A with BD, with no pleiotropy (heterogeneity in dependent instruments P > 0.01); DOC2A expression decreased in BD across neurons (P = 4.26 × 10-2), astrocytes (P = 2.09 × 10-2), hippocampus (P = 9.80 × 10-3, t = -2.738), and prefrontal cortex (P = 1.44 × 10-2, t = -2.580); WGCNA positioned DOC2A as a key regulator (module membership/gene significance P < 0.05) of co-expression networks enriched for BD-associated processes including neurotransmitter secretion and postsynaptic actin cytoskeleton organization (P < 0.05); molecular docking revealed favorable-affinity binding (ΔG < -4 kcal/mol) between DOC2A and BD-related drugs and neuroprotective compounds. CONCLUSIONS: Our convergent multi-omics framework highlights DOC2A dysregulation as a key contributor to synaptic dysfunction in BD and nominates it as a promising therapeutic target. The demonstrated interaction with existing neuroactive compounds provides immediate translational avenues.

Identification of autophagy-related genes as potential biomarkers correlated with immune infiltration in bipolar disorder: a bioinformatics analysis.

BACKGROUND: Bipolar disorder (BPD) is a kind of manic and depressive phase alternate episodes of serious mental illness, and it is correlated with well-documented cortical brain abnormalities. Emerging evidence supports that autophagy dysfunction in neuronal system contributes to pathophysiological changes in neurological disease. However, the role of autophagy in bipolar disorder has rarely been elucidated. This study aimed to identify the autophagy-related gene as a potential biomarker Correlated to immune infiltration in BPD. METHODS: The microarray dataset GSE23848 and autophagy-related genes (ARGs) were downloaded. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between normal and BPD samples were screened using the R software. Machine learning algorithms were performed to screen the significant candidate biomarker from autophagy-related differentially expressed genes (ARDEGs). The correlation between the screened ARDEGs and infiltrating immune cells was explored through correlation analysis. RESULTS: In this study, the autophagy pathway was abundantly enriched and activated in BPD, as indicated by Pathway enrichment analysis. We identified 16 ARDEGs in BPD compared to the normal group. A signature of 4 ARDEGs (ERN1, ATG3, CTSB, and EIF2AK3) was screened. ROC analysis showed that the above genes have good diagnostic performance. In addition, immune correlation analysis considered that the above four genes significantly correlated with immune cells in BPD. CONCLUSIONS: Autophagy - immune cell axis mediates pathophysiological changes in BPD. Four important ARDEGs are prospective to be potential biomarkers associated with immune infiltration in BPD and helpful for the prediction or diagnosis of BPD.

Preliminary evidence for linkage to chromosome 1q31-32, 10q23.3, and 16p13.3 in a South African cohort with bipolar disorder.

Although the genetic variants predisposing to the development of bipolar disorder (BPD) have yet to be conclusively identified, replicated reports of linkage to particular chromosomal regions have been encouraging. Here we carried out a non-parametric linkage analysis of nine of these candidate loci in a unique South African sample of 47 BPD pedigrees (N = 350). Three polymorphic markers per region of interest (3 x 9) were typed in a Caucasian cohort of Afrikaner and British origin. Statistically significant evidence for linkage was obtained at 1q31-32, 10q23.3, and 16p13.3 with maximum NPL scores of 2.52, 2.01, and 1.84, respectively. Our results add to the growing evidence that these chromosomal regions harbor genetic variants that play a role in the development of bipolar spectrum illness. Negative results were obtained for the remaining six candidate loci, possibly due to limited statistical power.
