▶Association of GSK3β Polymorphisms With Brain Structural Changes in Major Depressive DisorderAssociationN=149Becky Inkster et al.(2009)· Archives of General Psychiatry
A targeted sequencing study of 115 patients with bipolar disorder and depression identified genetic variants in NRG1, PIP4K2A, and HTR2C associated with treatment response and disease severity. The allele C of rs35641374 (NRG1) was associated with longer intervals between depressive episodes (p=4.37e-07), while the allele C of rs10508649 (PIP4K2A) was associated with longer intervals between manic/mixed episodes (p=0.000309) and treatment resistance assessed by CGI-I scale (p=0.000943). The allele A of rs2248440 (HTR2C) was associated with higher depression severity (p=0.003).
▶Focus on HTR2C: A possible suggestion for genetic studies of complex disordersAssociationN=149Antonio Drago et al.(2009)· American Journal of Medical Genetics Part B: Neuropsychiatric Genetics
This targeted sequencing association study of 115 psychiatric patients and 34 controls identifies NRG1, PIP4K2A, and HTR2C as candidate biomarker genes for antidepressant treatment response and mood disorder recurrence. Key findings include rs35641374 (NRG1) associated with longer time to depressive recurrence in bipolar disorder (p=4.37e-07), rs61731109 and rs10508649 (PIP4K2A) associated with antidepressant non-response (p=0.00111 and p=0.000943), and rs2248440 (HTR2C) associated with higher depression severity (p=0.003).
About GSK3B
The protein encoded by this gene is a serine-threonine kinase belonging to the glycogen synthase kinase subfamily. It is a negative regulator of glucose homeostasis and is involved in energy metabolism, inflammation, ER-stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, and apoptotic pathways. Defects in this gene have been associated with Parkinson disease and Alzheimer disease. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2017]
