Decreased GRK3 but not GRK2 expression in frontal cortex from bipolar disorder patients.
Overactivation of G-protein-mediated functions and altered G-protein regulation have been reported in bipolar disorder (BD) brain. Further, drugs effective in treating BD are reported to up-regulate expression of G-protein receptor kinase (GRK) 3 in rat frontal cortex. We therefore hypothesized that some G-protein subunits and GRK levels would be reduced in the brain of BD patients. We determin...
متن کاملReduced number of peripheral natural killer cells in schizophrenia but not in bipolar disorder.
Overwhelming evidence indicates that subthreshold inflammatory state might be implicated in the pathophysiology of schizophrenia (SCZ) and bipolar disorder (BPD). It has been reported that both groups of patients might be characterized by abnormal lymphocyte counts. However, little is known about alterations in lymphocyte proportions that may differentiate SCZ and BPD patients. Therefore, in th...
متن کاملEvidence for orbitofrontal pathology in bipolar disorder and major depression, but not in schizophrenia.
BACKGROUND The orbitofrontal cortex is involved in the monitoring of reward and in judgement. Lesion studies and functional neuroimaging investigations implicate this region in affective disorders, and altered neuronal and glial cell composition have been observed in this region in subjects with major depressive disorder (MDD). AIMS Stereologically based investigation of caudal orbitofrontal ...
متن کاملBrainAGE score indicates accelerated brain aging in schizophrenia, but not bipolar disorder.
BrainAGE (brain age gap estimation) is a novel morphometric parameter providing a univariate score derived from multivariate voxel-wise analyses. It uses a machine learning approach and can be used to analyse deviation from physiological developmental or aging-related trajectories. Using structural MRI data and BrainAGE quantification of acceleration or deceleration of in individual aging, we a...
متن کاملAbnormal early brain responses during visual search are evident in schizophrenia but not bipolar affective disorder.
People with schizophrenia show deficits in processing visual stimuli but neural abnormalities underlying the deficits are unclear and it is unknown whether such functional brain abnormalities are present in other severe mental disorders or in individuals who carry genetic liability for schizophrenia. To better characterize brain responses underlying visual search deficits and test their specifi...
