Content
• Mental disorder
• History
• Aim of GWAS
• Mood disorder
• Bipolar disorder & major depressive disorder
• Genes Involvement
• Pharmacogenomics
• Summary
• Conclusion
What is Mental
disorder
• A mental disorder is characterized by a
clinically significant disturbance in an
individual's cognition, emotional regulation,
or behavior.
• Also known as psychiatric.
Types of Mental
Disorder
Hundreds of different types of mental disorders
Characterized and defined by the DSM and
ICD.
Example.
• Anxiety disorders
• Mood disorder
• Intellectual disabilities
• Developmental disorders
• Personality disorders etc.
Finalyear
History
• In 1987 breakthrough discovery of a genetic
marker linked to bipolar.
• re-evaluation of the same sample
• In 2008, largest study (3,000 subjects).
• review of the issue concluded that no reliable
signal was detected in the previous 20 years of
studies.
• Researcher didn’t loss hope move to complex
diseases like hypertension of diabetes. Cohort
study (100,000) after this, previous aim was
change.
• Range 50 to 100 risk genes responsible for bipolar
Aim of GWAS
• Psychiatric Genome-Wide Association Study
was establish.
• Aim of collecting samples from all over the
world in order to reach a sufficient sample size.
• So (7,000 bipolar subjects)
• Strong signal collect from CACNA1C gene
• Show connection of mental disorder with
genetics.
• Detect strong signals from 15 genes of major
depressive disorder
• 100,000 are sufficient to detect all the genes
Finalyear
Mood
disorder
• persistent and significant
disturbances in a person's
emotional state, leading to
altered mood patterns that
impact daily functioning.
Mood disorder
include
• Bipolar disorder,
• Cyclothymic hypomania,
• Major depressive
disorder,
• Disruptive mood
dysregulation disorder,
• Persistent depressive
disorder, etc.
Heritability
• heritability of both bipolar and depressive
disorder is 50%
• Arise from a complex interplay of genetic,
biological, environmental, and psychological
factors.
• which are those genes and why they confer the
risk for more disorders?
• Genes are linked with the issue of
neuroplasticity and inflammation
• 30 year research identify risk factor genes
• Risk of a subject to develop mood disorders
would be identify the risk through DNA
Analysis.
• Performed from the saliva sample
Pharmacogenetics of mood
disorders
• Genetic factors of mood disorders is useful for an
early diagnosis and for the discovery of new
treatments.
• Genetics knowledge is very important
• Clinical factor is not enough to responses of anti
depression.
• Lots of clinical factors
• Still variability present that linked to genetics
Variability
• Genetic variance is due to pharmacodynamics
and parmacokinamatics variants
• CYP enzymes which metabolize drugs
• Poor metabolizer need lower dose to avoid side
effect and vice verse
• Genetic analysis gives the knowledge
• Also variability in the target of the drugs such as
transporters, receptors, enzymes etc.
• Serotonin transporter is not the same in every
individual
• Depend on availability of serotonin
transporters reduced availability of serotonin
transporters in their brain will benefit less from
treatment
• Short serotonin variant create change plasticity
of whole serotonin system.
• This variant alone cannot explain all the genetic
variability, other variant , (CHL1, 5HTR2A)etc.
Summary
• Variant within gene relevant for
neurodevelopment and plasticity are influencing
antidepressant response
• Can we use this information in our everyday
clinical practice?
• Answer is Not straightforward. but genetics is
indeed important
• complete prediction could be achieved combining
Conclusion
• 30 years of researches reliable findings
• Number of genes Identify
• Pharmacogenetics of antidepressants, findings
are probably even stronger
• Companies started commercializing tools for
use in everyday clinical practice to improve
precision medicine.

Editor's Notes

  1. There are hundreds of different types of mental disorders as characterized and defined by the DSM and ICD. Diagnostic and Statistical Manuel of Mental Disorders (DSM) and the International Classification for Diseases (ICD) Anxiety disorder ;. Worrying about bills, job interviews, tests or other important events. Mood disorder;. persistent and significant disturbances in a person's emotional state, leading to altered mood patterns that impact daily functioning. Intellectual disabilities;. limitations in cognitive functioning and adaptive behavior, affecting an individual's ability to learn, reason, and effectively navigate daily life. Developmental disorders;. delays or difficulties in physical, cognitive, communication, and social development Personality disorders ;. Enduring patterns of behavior, thinking, and relating that significantly deviate from social norms and cause distress or impairment in various aspects of life.
  2. Thirty years which were paved by enthusiasm and disappointment, enthusiasm when discoveries were performed and disappointment when the same discoveries could not be replicated in independent samples. This is indeed what happened at the beginning of the mood disorders genetic studies. It was 1987, almost thirty years ago, when a breakthrough discovery was published in the high impact “Nature” journal. Janice Egeland published a paper reporting the discovery of a genetic marker located into the chromosome 11 linked to bipolar disorder. after only two years, a re-evaluation of the same sample where two subjects did change clinical status from healthy to affected by bipolar disorder, changed the results that became completely insignificant After 20 years, in 2008, when largest study was perform about 3,000 subject. review of the issue and indeed concluded that no reliable signal was detected in the previous 20 years of studies despite the fact that many signals have been reported all over the genome, some of them also more than once, but none of them convincingly replicated. However, researchers did not lose the hope , they move toward complex diseases, such as hypertension of diabetes with largest simple of 100,000 subjects, This was a complete change compared to the previous aim, for many years in fact researchers believed that one or a few genes were responsible for the development of bipolar disorder. Now they realized that risk genes were in the range of 50–100 or more, each of them conferring a very mild and small risk
  3. After that The Psychiatric GWAS Consortium was founded The aim of GWAS was collecting samples from all over the world in order to reach a sufficient sample size. Then the first findings came out when analyzing a sample of more than 7,000 bipolar subjects where it was possible to identify one of the first genes that now stand as definite risk factors for bipolar disorder, the CACNA1C gene variant And also for major depressive disorder, a sample of more than 70,000 subjects allowed to detect strong signals from 15 genes Therefore at present there is substantial evidence suggesting that the samples in the order of 100,000 are sufficient to detect all the genes that are responsible for developing mood disorders
  4. . persistent and significant disturbances in a person's emotional state, leading to altered mood patterns that impact daily functioning
  5. A mental illness that causes unusual shifts in a person's mood, Extreme changes in your mood or emotions, energy level and activity level Depressive disorder (also known as depression) is a common mental disorder. It involves a depressed mood or loss of pleasure or interest in activities for long periods of time. A condition in which children or adolescents experience ongoing irritability, anger, and frequent, intense temper outbursts. A chronic (ongoing) type of depression in which a person's moods are regularly low. 
  6. Genes alone are not sufficient to explain all the cases of mood disorders but they confer a substantial risk which is combined with environmental stressors to determine the final illness. which are those genes and why they confer the risk for more disorders
  7. It is very interesting to see that many of those genes are linked with the issue of neuroplasticity and inflammation, (two mechanisms that when combined, decrease the possibility of the individual brain to react and be plastic to external stressors and influences.) This is why after 30 years of research the enthusiasm is now grounded: sufficiently large sample size allowed to identify the risk genes which are confirmed by the new replications We can easily imagine that in the not-too-distant future we would be able to identify the risk of a subject to develop mood disorders by a simple DNA analysis that can be performed also from the saliva
  8. Genetics of mood disorders results are very interesting but clinical applications are not yet available pharmacogenetics results are even more interesting and the first clinical applications are already available. knowledge of genetics factor is important for the development of new treatments. We all know that there are a series of clinical factors that can suggest that the patient can be more or less responsive to treatment, those factors are educational status, economic level, being married, having a long duration of the illness, having comorbid anxiety etc. So still there is a variability that we cannot effectively detect from a clinical point of view because this variability is linked to genetic factors similarly to the genetics of mood disorders
  9. the genetic variance is due to phamacogenetics variants, example the CYP enzymes which metabolize drugs About 10% of our patients are poor metabolizers and therefore they need lower dosage in order to avoid the appearance of side effects, another 10% of subjects are extensive metabolizers and therefore they need higher dosages of the drug. The knowledge of their metabolizing status is now possible through a simple genetic analysis and this may give the doctor a substantial help in order to individualize the dosages needed by the single patient. Genetic variance is due to pharmacodynamics variants that is the interindividual variability in the target of the drugs such as transporters, receptors, enzymes etc.
  10. In fact, it is well known that the most common antidepressant target and block the serotonin transporter, however, it is less known that the serotonin transporter is not the same in every individual. Therefore we can easily hypothesize that subject with a reduced availability of serotonin transporters in their brain will benefit less from treatment with common serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRI). It is considered one of the most solid findings in the whole field of pharmacogenetics of mood disorders. However, this variant alone cannot explain all the genetic variability, therefore other variants are involved as well. We recently observed that another variant (CHL1) can modulate the serotonin transporter function
  11. In summary, we have seen how a number of variants within genes that are relevant for neurodevelopment and plasticity are influencing antidepressant response. The question therefore is: can we use this information in our everyday clinical practice? The answer is not straightforward, despite the fact that those genes are indeed important, a number of clinical factors that can modulate. antidepressant response should be considered. We all know from our clinical activity, that patients are characterized by a wide range of factors such as personality, defense mechanisms, self-esteem, intelligence and all the other demographic factors which much modulate the genetic background. Depression affects about 280 million people worldwide, and has been cited as the “single largest contributor to global disability” by the WHO Therefore, a complete prediction could be achieved probably only by combining the clinical and genetic predictors in a complex algorithm which takes into consideration the variability of each subject.
  12. In conclusion, after 30 years of researches genetics of mood disorder is starting to offer very interesting and reliable findings. A number of genes have been identified as liability factors for both bipolar disorder and major depression and the use of large sample sizes is likely to confirm in the future a definite genetic at risk profile. Regarding pharmacogenetics of antidepressants, findings are probably even stronger in the recent years a number of companies started commercializing tools for use in everyday clinical practice to improve precision medicine..
