Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Although it is known that lithium (Li) is effective in the treatment of bipolar disorders (BDs), a certain patient with BDs poorly responds to Li. It is hypothesized that structural genomic variations in the GSK 3 beta or BDNF gene may change the therapeutic efficacy of Li. One type of structural genomic variations is a copy number variation (CNV). So, we examined the rates of CNVs in GSK 3 beta and BDNF gene based on the Databases of Genomic Variations (DGV) in patients with BDs by quantitative real-time PCR. The therapeutic response to Li was evaluated by Alda Scale. In the BDNF gene, while 5 BD patients were found to have 3 copies of exon IV region within nsv95132, there was no healthy subject having an amplified exon IV region. There was no significant difference in Alda Scale A between BD patients with 3 copies and 2 copies.These findings suggest that CNV within exon IV of the BDNF gene may not be involved in the therapeutic response to Li in patients with BD.
