Factor Analysis

Factor analytic techniques in the most general form seek to model p observed variables as a linear combination of k usually $\ll p$ latent or unobserved variables plus orthogonal error variance:

$x=z\Lambda +\epsilon ;\quad E[zz']=\Phi ;\quad E[\epsilon \epsilon ']=\Psi ={\text{diag}}(\psi _{1},\psi _{2}\dots \psi _{p});\quad E[xx']=\Lambda \Phi \Lambda '+\Psi$

This can be formulated as the modeling of the observed sample covariance, denoted $S$ with the covariance implied by the factor analytic model $\Sigma =\Lambda \Phi \Lambda '+\Psi$. The model can be specified with a general class of fitting functions, the GLS functions of the general form $F_{GLS}=(s-\sigma )'V^{-1}(s-\sigma )$ for $\sigma ={\text{vech}}(\Sigma )$ and $s={\text{vech}}(S)$ which provided it provided V is a consistent estimator of the asymptotic covariance of the sample covariance(i.e. $E[X^{2}X^{2}]$), is asymptotically equivalent to estimation by maximum likelihood under normality assumptions, with the fitting function being

$F_{ML}=\ln \vert \Sigma \vert +{\text{tr}}\left(S\Sigma ^{-1}\right)$

A common constraint, usually imposed under the name of Exploratory Factor Analysis(EFA), is $\Phi =I_{k}\rightarrow \Sigma =\Lambda \Lambda '+\Psi$ The model without this constraint is usually called Confirmatory Factor Analysis(CFA)

Due to orthogonality constraints, EFA solutions are not unique, and $\Lambda$ is invariant under rotation by an orthogonal matrix. These rotations may be used to obtain a loadings matrices that has desirable properties for the given application(i.e. loadings forced towards zero or one).

Factor analysis is frequently confused with principal component analysis, but it differs as it is a probabilistic rather than a deterministic model, as PCA does not have an underlying generative model.

Fitting of the model by newton-raphson algorithms or MM algorithms(e.g. Expectation Maximization, or EMCM) usually require at least first order derivatives. These are, for a parameter vector $\theta =\left[{\text{vec}}(\Lambda ),{\text{vech}}(\Psi ),{\text{vech}}(\Psi )\right]$

${\frac {\partial F_{ML}(\theta )}{\partial \theta '}}=\Delta ={\begin{bmatrix}2{\text{vec}}\left(\Sigma ^{-1}(S-\Sigma )\Sigma ^{-1}\Lambda \Phi \right)\\{\text{vech}}\left(\Lambda '\Sigma ^{-1}(S-\Sigma )\Sigma ^{-1}\Lambda \right)\\2{\text{vech}}\left(\Sigma ^{-1}(S-\Sigma )\Sigma ^{-1}\right)\end{bmatrix}}$

${\frac {\partial ^{2}F_{ML}(\theta )}{(\partial \theta ')(\partial \theta )}}=\Delta '(\Sigma ^{-1}\otimes \Sigma ^{-1}(S-\Sigma )\Sigma ^{-1})\Delta$

The inverse of the second matrix represents the observed fisher information matrix, ${\mathcal {I}}_{obs}$, while the expected information can be expressed as ${\mathcal {I}}_{exp}=\left[\Delta '(\Sigma ^{-1}\otimes \Sigma ^{-1})\Delta \right]^{-1}$

Popular methods of estimation include Lawley and Maxwell's maximum likelihood algorithm, Rubin and Thayer's Expectation Maximization Algorithm, or generalized least squares.

Dopaminergic Modulation of the PFC

• Phasic dopamine release in the prefrontal cortex is capable of mediating cognitive flexibility. Activation of D1 receptors on a neuron increases the influence of strong signals and inhibits the weaker signals, effectively strengthening the representation of information in the PFC. D2 receptors on the other hand increase sensitivity to external noise, resulting in increased cognitive flexibility. This dynamic enables a switch in focus due to a salient stimulus. Given that D2 receptors tend to be synaptic, and D1 receptors tend to be extrasynaptic, phasic transmission is characterized first by preferential D2 activation, followed by tonic D1 activation. A salient stimulis can then trigger a transition state, followed by restrengthening.

• The role of DA in modulating the PFC is conceptualized by two regimes. The D1 dominated regime is characterized by a "robust", "high energy barrier" that facilitates the maintenance of information. The D2 dominated regime is in turn characterized by a low energy barrier that facilitates quick transition between representational states.

Bipolar Disorder

Etiology

The etiology of bipolar disorder is unknown. The overall heritability of bipolar is estimated at 79%-93%, and first degree relatives of bipolar probands have a relative risk of developing bipolar around 7-10. While the heritability is high, no specific genes have been conclusively associated with bipolar, and a number of hypothesis have been posited to explain this fact. The polygenic common rare variant hypothesis suggests that a large number of risk conferring genes are carried in a population, and that a disease manifests when a person has a sufficient number of these genes. The multiple rare variant model suggests that multiple genes that are rare in the population are capable of causing a disease, and that carrying one or a few can lead to disease.

A number of genome wide associations have been reported, including CACNA1C and ODZ4. Less consistently reported loci include ANK3 and NCAN, ITIH1, ITIH3 and NEK4. Significant overlaps with schizophrenia have been reported at CACNA1C, ITIH, ANK3, and ZNF804A. This overlap is congruent with the observation that relatives of probands with schizophrenia are at higher risk for bipolar disorder and vice versa. In light of associations between bipolar and circadian abnormalities(such as decreased need for sleep and increased sleep latency), polymorphisms in the CLOCK gene have been tested for association, although findings have been inconsistent. Other circadian genes associated with bipolar at relaxed significance thresholds include ARTNL, RORB, and DEC1.

Pathophysiology

Structural neuroimaging studies consistently report increased frequency of white matter hyperintensities in people with bipolar. However, whether or not the lesions play a causative role is unknown. It is possible that they are a result of secondary factors, such as in increased risk of cardiovascular disease in bipolar. On the other hand, the observation of reduced white matter integrity in frontal-subcortical regions makes it possible that these hyperintensities play a role dysfunction between limbic and cortical regions. Global brain volume and morphology are normal in bipolar. Regional deficits in volume have been reported in ventrolateral and dorsolateral prefrontal regions. Based on this, it has been suggested that reduced limbic regulation by prefrontal regions plays a role in bipolar. Findings related to the volume of the basal ganglia have been inconsistent.

Functional neuroimaging studies, contrary to structural studies, consistently find hyperactivation of the basal ganglia, amygdala, and thalamus. Prefrontal abnormalities are less consistently reported, although hyperactivation in the ventral prefrontal cortex is a fairly consistent finding. Mania is generally associated with frontal/ventral hypoactivation, while depression is generally associated with the opposite. A degree of lateralization with regard to abnormalities has been reported, with mania being associated with the right hemisphere, and depression the left. Trait abnormalities in euthymic patients have been observed, including hypoactivity in the ventral prefrontal cortex, and hyperactvity in the amygdala.

• The Role of Genetics in the Etiology of Schizophrenia

• NRXN1 and MHC genes have been most frequently associated with schizophrenia(along with NOTCH4 and the aforementioned TNF)

Mechanism

Neurochemical

• Glutamate and dopamine in schizophrenia: an update for the 21st century.

• Post mortem studies while few in number are associated with a reduction in post-synaptic dopamine receptors, and an increase in presynaptic D2 receptors, as well as an increase in TH, no change in DAT, elavation of D4 receptors, a reduction in D2 monomers, and a large increase in D2 dimers
• In Vivo neurochemical imaging has demonstrated a large increase in presynaptic dopamine metabolism, but the post-synaptic dopaminergic protein results have been inconsistent
• While genetic studies and the mimicry of SCZ symptoms by NMDA agonists implicates glutamate dysfunction in SCZ, a lack of consistency in post-mortem studies suggests that a deficit in NMDA receptor expression may be too simple a model, rather NMDA dysfunction may be characterized by dysfunctional regional expression and altered subunit composition.
• While those with familial risk, first episode psychosis, or psychotic symptoms demonstrate increased glutamine levels using in vivo imaging, chronic schizophrenics demonstrate a reduction or normal levels. Furthermore, an increase in glutamine/gluamate ratio has been observed in some studies

• Neurodevelopment, GABA, and Schizophrenia

• Due to the lack of a definitive neurodegenerative course in the morphological changes associated with schizophrenia, the common finding of reduced cortical thickness and increase ventricle volume are thought to be a result of developmental processes.
• Variable findings in interstitial white matter have been observed with regard to GABAergic neurons.
• Both genetic and environmental risk factors for SCZ have been associated with altered GABAergic development

Neurobiological

• The impact of NMDA receptor hypofunction on GABAergic neurons in the pathophysiology of schizophrenia

• NMDARs are necessary for large network connectivity and heavily influence GABAergic development. Both genetic and post-mortem studies have demonstrated alterations in GABAergic and NMDAR proteins and regulating genes, and a widely replciated finding is a reduction in NMDA receptors globally, although this effect is particularly significant in GABAergic neurons, and is especially prominent in NR1 and NR2C subunits in the PFC.

• Younger SCZs demonstrate decreased expression of PSD-95 with concurrent increases in thalamic NR2B, while the elderly with SCZ demonstrate the inverse.

• The impact of NMDA Receptor hypofunction on GABAergic interneurons in the pathophysiology of schizophrenia

• Expression of NMDA subunits appears to be decreased in the prefrontal cortex, as well as in general. Combined with evidence from NMDA receptor antagonists, this data suggests that schizophrenia involves hypofunctioning of NMDA receptors. This may contribute to resting state abnormalities in connectivity, as well as dopaminergic abnormalities.

Schizophrenia cont

• The symptoms of schizophrenia largely fall into three categories, reality distortion, negative symptoms and disorganization. The dichotomy, traced back to work by Kraepalin, whereby bipolar affective and psychotic disorders are treated as separate entities, is contradicted by continuity of affective and psychotic symptoms through genetic and neurobiological factors.
• The heritability of Schizophrenia is estimated to be roughly 80%. The heritable component is evident in monozygotic and dizygotic concordance, 41-65% and 0-28% respectively, as well as the elevated risk of developing in schizophrenia in those with first degree relative with schizophrenia, or bipolar disorder. Schizophrenia has been associated in GWAS studies with.

Significant overlap in GWAS studies of bipolar and schizophrenia have been observed at ANK3, CACNA1C, ZNF804A, and ITIH3-ITIH4. Studies of brain structure and function in Schizophrenia have included longitudinal, patient-control constrast, and at-risk study designs. Schizophrenia is associated with reduced volumes, usually of the magnitude 5-10%. Robust structural findings include 1)Ventricular enlargement, 2)Reduced whole brain volume, 3)Reduced GMV of the medial temporal lobe extending to the hippocampus and amygdala, 4)Reduced GMV in the STG. thirty-five out of forty-six studies report significant STG volume reduction, and eighteen out of thirty studies reported correlations between STG volume and severity of auditory hallucinations or though disorders. Thirteen studies have reported bilateral thalamic reductions, including studies on both first episodes and chronic patients. Grey matter reductions are particularly evident in the anterior ingulate, medial and inferior frontal lobes, and anterior insula. Bipolar parients and Schizophrenic pateints exhibit significant overlaps in the ACC, mPFC, lPFC, and bilateral insula, only differing in magnitude. The Cerebellum, Corpus Callosum, and Basal Ganglia are frequently observed to be structurally abnormal, although the findings as well as direction of changes is inconsistent. Longitudinal neuroimaging suggests that schizophrenia appears to be more of a neurodevelopment disorder, rather than a neurodegenerative disorder. Schizophrenics exhibit hypoactivity in the dlPFC during executive function tasks, frequently extending to the ACC, thalamus, and inferior and posterior parietal cortices. Hyperactivity during executive function tasks have been observed in midline cortical regions, premotor cortcices and the vlPFC. Reduced activation of the dlPFC during episodic memory tasks has been observed. Reality distortion has been assocaited with increased medial temporal blood flow, and decreased prefrontl boodflow in the other two symptom dimensions. Negtative symptoms in schizophrenia are characterized by more pronounced and widespread GMV losses. MTL generally differentiates affective disorders from less affective psychotic disorders. Longitutinally, Schizophrenia is associated with continual reductions in thalamic and prefrontal volumes and less consistend temporal lobe changes. Hippocampal reductions over time are more contested. In those at high risk for psychosis, inferior frontal and superior temporal reductions are associated with transition to psychosis. Magnetic resonance spectroscopy observe first episode increased in Gln and decreased in Glu, followed by accelerated age related decreased in Gln and Glu relative to controls--->Taken to mean first episode increased in Glu--->Increased in Gln+Decreaese in Glu---->Thereafter reductions in Gln+Glu.

While there is no argument that schizophrenia is associated with cognitive deficits which are in turn associated with abnormalities in the prefrontal cortex and medial temporal lobe, the fundemental cognitive processes that malfunctioning are yet to be determined. Endophenotypic and medication status-independent deficits in WM are observed in schizophrenia, regardless of the modality tested(i.e. verbal versus visual). The temporal characteristics of WM deficits in schizophrenia have led some authors to postulate that deficits are encoding related; in line with this, deficits are constant regardless of delay. However, maintence appears to be dysfunctional as well. While "hypofrontality" is a major principal in schizophenia theories, the relationship between WM task deficit appears to follow a biphasic curve, with increased dlPFC signals occuring earlier in schizophrenic patients, indicating less efficient systems of internal representation. Episodic memory also impaired, and evidence suggests that this is most prominently expressed in relational reasoning caused by hippocampal and prefrontal dysfunction. Hedonic, valenced, processing in schizophrenia appears to largely be intact, as ventral-striatal responses and subjective "liking" is not diminished, although loss-avoidance responsivity is impaired. Despite the aforementioned findings, increased anhedonia(negative symptoms) have also been reportedly associated with reduced striatal responsiveness to rewards. While basal ganglia dysfuncton is present in schizophrenia, simple reinforcement learning is not impaired. However, when reinforcement learning paradigms increase in complexity, impairment becomes apparent. While these impairments are fairly consistent, whether or the deficit is a result of online processing mechanisms(e.g. dlPFC mediated WM), associative processes, or both, is unknown. Monetary incentive delay tasks, assesing desire or "wanting" is frequently associated with reduced ventral striatal signaling in schizophrenia. This has been correlated with various symptoms and symptom dimensions, including apathy and negative symptoms in both medication naive and medicated patients. Reduced prediction errors have also been observed.

• Overall, a failure of on line maintence and reward associativty is thought to lead to impairment in the generation of cognition and behavior recquired to obtain rewads, despite normal hedonic responses. From a longitudinal standpoint, deficits in verbal, nonverbal and mathematical, tests scores have been observed in people who go on to develop schizophrenia. Attentional deficits has the ability to identify which children of parents with schizophrenia will and wont go on to develop the disease themselves. One study examining the Iowa test found that deficits were only significant after the onset of puberty in those who went on to develop the disease in adulthood.

Neuropathological studies suggest that volumetric deficits in the temporal lobes, prefrontal lobes, and subiculum of those with Schizophrenia can be better attributed to deficits in neuropil(neuronal extensions such as dendrites) rather than fewer cells. Postmortem gene expression studies have observed reductions in protein associated with myelin formation and regulation, which is congruent with the association between NRGN and DISC1 genetic polymorphisms and schizophrenia. Reductions in GAD67 mRNA levels in the prefrontal cortex and general reduction in parvalbumin mRNA have been observed in schizophrenia, being most significant but not limited to prefrontal regions. The reductions in GABAergic neuronal proteins may be linked to the observed reductions of TrKB and BDNF as the latter proteins are involved in the regulation of the former. The reduction may also be linked to reduced excitation of GABAergic neurons, possible due to hypofunction of NMDA receptors.

Biology of bipolar disorder

The biology of bipolar disorder is unknown. Various abnormalities in studies of brain structure and function have been demonstrated. Various theories have posited dysfunction in monoaminergic regulation, neural circuitry, and mitochondria function as underlying bipolar disorder.

Etiology

The etiology of bipolar disorder is unknown. The overall heritability of bipolar is estimated at 79%-93%, and first degree relatives of bipolar probands have a relative risk of developing bipolar around 7-10. While the heritability is high, no specific genes have been conclusively associated with bipolar, and a number of hypothesis have been posited to explain this fact. The polygenic common rare variant hypothesis suggests that a large number of risk conferring genes are carried in a population, and that a disease manifests when a person has a sufficient number of these genes. The multiple rare variant model suggests that multiple genes that are rare in the population are capable of causing a disease, and that carrying one or a few can lead to disease.

A number of genome wide associations have been reported, including CACNA1C and ODZ4. Less consistently reported loci include ANK3 and NCAN, ITIH1, ITIH3 and NEK4. Significant overlaps with schizophrenia have been reported at CACNA1C, ITIH, ANK3, and ZNF804A. This overlap is congruent with the observation that relatives of probands with schizophrenia are at higher risk for bipolar disorder and vice versa. In light of associations between bipolar and circadian abnormalities(such as decreased need for sleep and increased sleep latency), polymorphisms in the CLOCK gene have been tested for association, although findings have been inconsistent. Other circadian genes associated with bipolar at relaxed significance thresholds include ARTNL, RORB, and DEC1. One meta analysis reported a significant association of the short allele of the serotonin transporter, although the study was specific to european populations. Two polymorphisms in the tryptophan hydroxylase 2 gene have been associated with bipolar disorder.

No significant association exists for the BDNF Val66Met allele and bipolar disorder, except in a subgroup of bipolar II cases.

Pathophysiology

Neuroimaging

Structural neuroimaging studies consistently report increased frequency of white matter hyperintensities in people with bipolar. However, whether or not the lesions play a causative role is unknown. It is possible that they are a result of secondary factors, such as in increased risk of cardiovascular disease in bipolar. On the other hand, the observation of reduced white matter integrity in frontal-subcortical regions makes it possible that these hyperintensities play a role dysfunction between limbic and cortical regions. Global brain volume and morphology are normal in bipolar. Regional deficits in volume have been reported in ventrolateral and dorsolateral prefrontal regions. Based on this, it has been suggested that reduced limbic regulation by prefrontal regions plays a role in bipolar. Findings related to the volume of the basal ganglia have been inconsistent.

Functional neuroimaging studies, contrary to structural studies, consistently find hyperactivation of the basal ganglia, amygdala, and thalamus. Prefrontal abnormalities are less consistently reported, although hyperactivation in the ventral prefrontal cortex is a fairly consistent finding. Mania is generally associated with frontal/ventral hypoactivation, while depression is generally associated with the opposite. A degree of lateralization with regard to abnormalities has been reported, with mania being associated with the right hemisphere, and depression the left. Trait abnormalities in euthymic patients have been observed, including hypoactivity in the ventral prefrontal cortex, and hyperactvity in the amygdala. Hyperactivity in the amygdala and hypoactivity in the medial and ventral prefrontal cortex during exposure to emotional stimuli has been interpreted as reflecting dysfunction in emotional regulation circuits. Increased effective connectivity between the amygdala and orbitofrontal cortex, and elevated striatal responsiveness during reward tasks have been interpreted as hyper-responsiveness in positive emotion and reward circuitry. The abnormal activity in these circuits has been observed in non-emotional tasks, and is congruent with changes in grey and white matter in these circuits. Neural response during reward tasks differentiates unipolar depression from bipolar depression, with the former being associated with reduced neural response and the latter being associated with elevated neural response.

Meta analyses of structural neuroimaging studies have reported reductions in fronto-insula cortices, the anterior cingulate cortex, ventricular enlargement, increased volumes of the globus pallidus and increased amygdala volume relative to those with schizophrenia, and reduced grey matter in the claustrum and temporal cortex. A significant overlap of bipolar disorder with schizophrenia in grey matter volume reduction occurs in the anterior cingulate cortex, medial prefrontal cortex, lateral prefrontal cortex and bilateral insula.

Regardless of mood state, during response inhibition tasks, people with bipolar disorder underactivate the right inferior frontal gyrus. Changes specific on euthymia include hyperactivations in the left superior temporal gyrus and hypoactivations in the basal ganglia, and changes specific to mania include hyperactivation in the basal ganglia. A meta analysis of fMRI studies reported underactivations in the inferior frontal gyrus and putamen and hyperactivation of the parahippocampus, hippocampus, and amygdala. State specific abnormalities were reported for mania and euthymia. During mania, hypoactivation was significant in the inferior frontal gyrus, while euthymia was associated wit hypoactivation of the lingual gyrus and hyperactivation of the amygdala.

Neurometabolites

Increased combined glutamine and glutamate(Glx) have been observed globally, regardless of medication status. Increased Glx has been associated with reduced frontal mismatch negativity, interpreted as dysfunction in NMDA signaling. N-acetyl aspartate levels in the basal ganglia are reduced in bipolar disorder, and trends towards increased in the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex. NAA to creatine ratios are reduced in the hippocampus.

Neurochemistry

Various hypotheses related to monoamines have been proposed. The biogenic amine hypothesis posits general dysregulation of monoamines underlies bipolar and affective disorders. The cholinergic aminergic balance hypothesis posits that an increased ratio of cholingeric activity relative to adrenergic signaling underlies depression, while increased adrenergic signaling relative to cholinergic signaling underlies mania. The permissive hypothesis suggests that serotonin is necessary but not sufficient for affective symptoms, and that reduced serotonergic tone is common to both depression and mania.

Studies of the binding potential of Dopamine receptor D2 and dopamine transporter have been inconsistent but Dopamine receptor D1's binding potential has been observed to be decreased, interpreted as reflecting increased synaptic dopamine in mania. Drugs that release dopamine produce effects similar to mania, further supporting the hypothesis of increase catecholaminergic activity in mania. The binding potential of muscarinic receptors are reduced in vivo during depression, as well as in post mortem studies, supporting the cholinergic aminergic balance hypothesis.

Further evidence for monoamine dysfunction in bipolar comes on studies of neurotransmitter metabolites. Reduced concentration of homovallinic acid, the primary metabolite of dopamine, in the cerebrospinal fluid(CSF) of people with depression is consistently reported. This finding is related to psychomotor retardation and anhedonia. Furthermore, parkinson's disease is associated with high rates of depression, and one case study has reported the abolishment of parkinson's symptoms during manic episodes. The binding potential of VMAT2 is also elevated in bipolar I patients with a history of psychosis, although this finding is inconsistent with finding that valproate increases VMAT2 expression in rodents.

Studies of serotonin's primary metabolite 5-HIAA have been inconsistent, although limited evidence points towards reduced central serotonin signaling in a subgroup of aggressive or suicidal patients. Studies assessing the binding potential of the serotonin transporter or serotonin receptors have also been inconsistent, but generally point towards abnormal serotonin signalling.

Bipolar disorder is associated with elevated basal and dexamethasone elicited cortisol and Adrenocorticotropic hormone(ACTH). These abnormalities are particularly prominent in mania, and are inversely associated with antipsychotic use.

Intracellular Signaling

The levels of G_αs but not other g proteins is increased in the frontal, temporal and occipital cortices. The binding of serotonin receptors to g proteins is also elevated globally. Leukocyte and platelet levels of G_αs and G_αi is also elavated in those with bipolar disorder. Downstream targets of g protein signaling is also altered in bipolar disorder. Increased levels of adenylyl cyclase, protein kinase A(PKA), and cyclic adenosine monophosphate induced PKA activity is also elevated. Phosphoinositide signaling is also altered, with elevated levels of phospholipase C, protein kinase C, and G_αq being reported in bipolar.

Glycogen synthase kinase 3 has been implicated in bipolar disorder, as bipolar medications lithium and valproate have been shown to increase ints phosphorylation, thereby inhibiting it. However, postmortem studies hvae not shown any differences in GSK-3 levels or the levels of a downstream target β-catenin.

Mitochondrial Dysfunction

Some researchers have suggested bipolar disorder is a mitochondrial disease. Some cases of familial chronic progressive external ophthalmoplegia demonstrate increased rates of bipolar disorder before the onset of CPEO, and the higher rate of maternal inheritance patterns support this hypothesis. Further support this hypothesis is the abnormal findings in magnetic resonance spectroscopy studies of brain metabolites in people with bipolar.

Neuropathology

A number of abnormalities in GABAergic neurons have been reported in people with bipolar disorder. People with bipolar demonstrate reduced expression of GAD67 in CA3/CA2 subregion of the hippocampus. More extensive reductions of other indicators of GABA function have been reported in in the CA4 and CA1. Abnormal expression of kainate receptors on GABAergic cells have been reported, with reductions in GRIK1 and GRIK2 mRNA in the CA2/CA3 being found in people with bipolar. Decreased levels of HCN channels have also been reported, which, along with abnormal glutamate signaling, could contribute to reduced GABAergic tone in the hippocampus.

The observation of increased Glx in the prefrontal cortex is congruent with the observation of reduced glial cell counts and prefrontal cortex volume, as glia play an important role in glutamate homeostasis.

Immune Dysfunction

Elevated levels of IL-6, C-reactive protein(CRP) and TNFα have been reported in bipolar. Levels of some(IL-6 and CRP) but not all (TNFα) may be reduced by treatment. Increases in IL-6 have been reported in mood episodes, regardless of polarity.

Title	Summary	Pubmed
Melancholy, anhedonia, apathy: the search for separable behaviors and neural circuits in depression.	In rodent models of depression, activity in the mPFC as a whole relates to reduced sucrose preference and sociability, with are thought to be analogous to anhedonia and social withdrawal, respectively, in humans. Inhibiting this region via stimulating it at a supraphysiological frequency appears to attenuate these deficits.	https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/29529482

VTA

• The heterogeneity of ventral tegmental area neurons: Projection functions in a mood-related context
• Reward and aversion in a heterogeneous midbrain dopamine system

• Medial VTA DA neurons project to the medial shell of the NAc as well as the NAc core, the mPFC and the BLA. Lateral VTA DA neurons project to the lateral NAc shell, and likely represent the population of neurons that were historically assessed in studies that identified DA neurons by waveform and electrophysiological characteristics.
• The LDTg projects to the lVTA, driving the lVTA to release DA in the lateral NAc shell, producing CPP. The LHb, on the other hand, excites RMTg neurons that inhibit lVTA-Lateral NAc shell projections, but also excites NAc-->mPFC projections, inducing CPA.

• Viral vector strategies for investigating midbrain dopamine circuits underlying motivated behaviors

• The DR sends glutaminergic projections to the VTA which drive incentive salience; the LHb sends glutaminergic projections to the RMTg and mVTA to mPFC projections, the former of which provides general inhibition to DAergic neurons, and the latter of which excited mVTA to mPFC projections producing aversion; the BNST sends glutaminergic projections to GABAergic neurons, driving aversion, and GABAergic projections to GABAergic neurons, driving reward; the LH sends a pattern of projections similar to the BNST; the LDTg sends reward driving glutaminergic and GABAergic/glutaminergic coreleasing inputs to the VTA.

Schizophrenia

The cause and mechanism of schizophrenia is unknown. Evidence from phenomenology, pharmacology, neuroimaging, post mortem studies, genetics, and animal models implicate a number of possible and likely interrelated mechanisms, such as abnormalities in dopaminergic signalling, glutaminergic neurotransmission, and neurodevelopment. Many frameworks have been hypothesized to link these biological abnormalities to symptoms, including psychological and computational theories.

Abnormal dopamine signalling has been implicated in schizophrenia by the efficacy of D₂ receptor antagonists, as well as the consistent observation in positron emission tomography of elevated dopamine synthesis and release during acute psychosis. Abnormalities in dopaminergic symptoms have been hypothesized to underlie delusions via dysfunctional signalling of salience. Dopaminergic predictions errors, which mediate learning when expectancies are violated, are abnormal in schizophrenia, and these abnormalities correlate with the severity of delusions. Furthermore, impaired learning, putatively reflecting the functionality of the dopaminergic system, is present in schizophrenia and correlates with delusion severity. Dysfunctional prediction errors may be related to hyperactive input from the hippocampus, which is observed to be metabolically overactive in schizophrenia, and in turn may be related to abnormalities in NMDA receptor functioning on hippocampal interneurons. Hypoactivation of D₁ receptors in the prefrontal cortex may also be responsible for deficits in working memory and cognition, although direct evidence from neuroreceptor imaging studies is inconsistent.

Reduced NMDA receptor signalling is suggested by multiple lines of evidence. Post-mortem studies demonstrate reduced NMDA receptor expression and NMDA receptor antagonists mimic both schizophrenia symptoms and the electrophysiological abnormalities associated with schizophrenia (notable reduced mismatch negativity and P300). Two meta analyses of magnetic resonance spectroscopy studies have found evidence interpreted to be consistent with abnormal glutaminergic signalling, possible involving NMDA receptor abnormalities, despite contradictory findings (i.e. reduced versus elevated glutamate/glutamine ratios). This deficit in NMDA signalling may be related to the abnormalities observed in parvalbumin interneurons that express NMDA receptors. Post mortem studies consistently find that a subset of these neurons fail to express GAD67 in addition to abnormalities in morphology, although neuroimaging studies examining indicators of GABAergic signalling do not consistently report abnormalities. The subsets of interneurons that are abnormal in schizophrenia are responsible for the synchronizing of neural ensembles that is necessary during working memory tasks, a process that is electrophysiologically reflected in gamma frequency (30-80 Hz) oscillations. Both working memory tasks and gamma oscillations are impaired in schizophrenia, which may reflect abnormal interneuron functionality.

Multiple lines of evidence suggest that schizophrenia has a neurodevelopmental component. Schizophrenia is associated with premorbid impairments in cognition, social functioning, and motor skills, and prenatal insults such as maternal infection, maternal malnutrition and obsteric complications all increase risk for schizophrenia. Animal models of these insults demonstrate patterns of cellular and molecular abnormalities similar to those in schizophrenia, such as increased RELN methylation and abnormal GABAergic cell development. Schizophrenia usually emerges symptomatically during late adolescence, 18-25, an age period that overlaps with certain stages of neurodevelopment that are implicated in schizophrenia, such as abnormal synaptic pruning and myelination.

Deficits in executive functions, such as planning, inhibition, and working memory, are pervasive in schizophrenia. Although these functions are dissociable, their dysfunction in schizophrenia may reflect an underlying deficit in the ability to represent goal related information in working memory, and to utilize this to direct cognition and behavior. These impairments have been linked to a number of neuroimaging and neuropathological abnormalities. For example, functional neuroimaging studies report evidence of reduced neural processing efficiency, whereby the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex is activated to a greater degree to achieve a certain level of performance relative to controls on working memory tasks. These abnormalities may be linked to the consistent post-mortem finding of reduced neuropil, evidenced by increased pyramidal cell density, reduced dentritic spine density, and reduced expression mRNA associated with synapses. These cellular and functional abnormalities may also be reflected in structural neuroimaging studies that find reduced grey matter volume in association with deficits in working memory tasks.

Different symptoms have been linked to specific neuroanatomical abnormalities or neurobiological models. For example, positive and negative symptoms have been linked to reduced cortical thickness in the superior temporal lobe, and orbitofrontal cortex, respectively. Auditory hallucinations, a prominent component of positive symptoms, are also reflected in functional hyperactivity of auditory cortices, and in the predictive coding framework are hypothesized to reflect impaired feedforward cancellation of internally generated speech. Anhedonia, traditionally defined as a reduced capacity to experience pleasure, is frequently reported in schizophrenia. However, a large body of evidence suggests that hedonic responses are intact in schizophrenia, and that what is reported to be anhedonia is a reflection of dysfunction in other processes related to reward. Overall, a failure of online maintenance and reward associativity is thought to lead to impairment in the generation of cognition and behavior required to obtain rewards, despite normal hedonic responses. A meta analysis of neuroimaging studies examining reward related paradigms reported results consistent with impairments in the neural substrates that mediate learning, but not in the experience of reward.

Bayesian models of brain function have been utilized to link abnormalities in cellular functioning to symptoms. These models propose that the brain generates predictive models in order to explain sensory information, and that predictive units are organized in a hierarchical fashion that reflect a more abstract model of causes for sensory information higher in the hierarchy. The essential computation performed by these models involves the minimization of error generated by discrepancies in top down predictions by modifying synaptic weights with the least precision. Improper specification of precision in bayesian models is largely consistent with the behavioral, neuroimaging, and electrophysiological abnormalities associated with schizophrenia. Both a failure to attenuate sensory precision and excessive weighting or priors have been proposed as potential and not necessarily conflicting explanations. In canonical models of circuits that mediate predictive coding, hypoactive NMDA receptor activation and abnormalities in dopaminergic signalling, similar to that seen in schizophrenia, could theoretically result in classic symptoms of schizophrenia such as delusions and hallucinations.
