| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, we measured neurocognitive function in bipolar disorder patients and in healthy controls with the standard neurocognitive battery, named Japanese version of MCCB (MCCB-J), and we elucidated the characteristics of cognitive deficits in bipolar patients. We also found that the MCCB-J as well as other language version of MCCB could be useful to evaluate neurocognitive deficits in bipolar disorder. Next, we analyzed whole genomic methylation pattern of DNA derived from peripheral mono-nuclear cell and identified 50 candidate sites for methylation biomarker of bipolar disorder and several differentially methylated sites that related to specific neurocognitive function. This is the first study that evaluate characteristics of neurocognitive function in Japanese bipolar patients with a standard cognitive battery. This study can provide useful basic information about neurocognitive deficits in Japanese bipolar patients.
