Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In recent years, patients with psychiatric disorders have been increasing rapidly in Japan. In the present study, we therefore tried to elucidate the etiology and pathophysiology of psychiatric disorder by focusing on the presynaptic protein Piccolo, which has been suggested to be involved in multiple psychiatric disorders in genome-wide association study, in order to develop its therapeutic method. Neuronal function analysis at the individual, cell and molecular level in the prefrontal cortex Piccolo knockdown mice revealed similar phenotypes to patients with bipolar disorder or schizophrenia. Accordingly, neuronal network impairments from the prefrontal cortex caused emotional disturbance, cognitive dysfunction and stress vulnerability in bipolar disorder or schizophrenia. Furthermore, it was suggested that the genetic manipulation mice are useful as a new psychiatric animal model with high validity.
