Alteration in synaptic plasticity and oxidative stress is involved in the pathogenesis of bipolar disorder (BD).
The objectives of the study were to analyse neurexin-3 and 4-hydroxynonenal (4-HNE) levels in BD and their relation with cognitive scores and severity of the disease.
Eighty-four BD patients and 84 healthy volunteers were enrolled. Neurexin-3 and 4-HNE were analysed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Cognitive scores were determined using Addenbrooke's Cognitive Examination III (ACE-III) scores.
4-HNE ( < .001) and neurexin-3 ( < .001) were higher in BD cases in comparison with controls. 4-HNE was positively related to neurexin-3 ( = .048). Neurexin-3 was related to the total ACE-III score ( = .029), attention ( = .040) and fluency ( = .026) scores in BD cases. When multivariate analysis was done, neurexin-3 was related to ACE-III score in BD ( = .005).
We conclude that neurexin-3 is increased and associated with 4-HNE and cognitive dysfunction in BD.
突触可塑性改变和氧化应激参与双相情感障碍(BD)的发病机制。
本研究旨在分析BD患者中神经纤连蛋白-3和4-羟基壬烯醛(4-HNE)水平及其与认知评分和疾病严重程度的关系。
招募84例BD患者和84名健康志愿者。采用酶联免疫吸附测定(ELISA)法分析神经纤连蛋白-3和4-HNE。使用Addenbrooke认知功能测试Ⅲ(ACE-Ⅲ)评分确定认知评分。
与对照组相比,BD患者的4-HNE(<.001)和神经纤连蛋白-3(<.001)水平更高。4-HNE与神经纤连蛋白-3呈正相关(=.048)。在BD患者中,神经纤连蛋白-3与ACE-Ⅲ总分(=.029)、注意力(=.040)和流畅性(=.026)评分相关。进行多变量分析时,神经纤连蛋白-3与BD患者的ACE-Ⅲ评分相关(=.005)。
我们得出结论,BD患者中神经纤连蛋白-3升高,并与4-HNE和认知功能障碍相关。
