Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a biomarker for determining the presence / absence of psychiatric schizophrenia, bipolar disorder or depression using a sample derived from a subject, and a mental disease determination method using the biomarker.
  • diagnosis of psychiatric disorders is usually based on information such as symptoms, signs, and progress obtained through interviews with the person or family, and Diagnostic Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM) defined by the American Psychiatric Association It is done according to the diagnostic criteria.
  • DSM Diagnostic Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
  • diagnosis results often do not match between the doctors making the diagnosis.
  • Non-Patent Document 4 only 38.4% of 5639 people diagnosed with depression based on DSM diagnosis in general practice were rediagnosed as depressive disorder in a structured diagnostic interview (Non-Patent Document 4).
  • the structured diagnostic interview is a manual interview method.
  • Non-Patent Document 3 Non-Patent Document 3
  • DSM diagnosis is determined for mental disorders, it cannot be said that it necessarily reflects biological pathology. In fact, there are many cases in which a DSM diagnosis is mistakenly diagnosed as a mental illness even if the cause is clearly a cause other than the brain. For example, at least 10% of patients diagnosed with depression are said to have side effects of hypothyroidism and anti-inflammatory drugs (Non-patent Document 1). It has also been reported that patients diagnosed with schizophrenia include anti-NMDA receptor antibody encephalitis (Non-patent Document 2).
  • Non-patent Document 5 the current antidepressant has not been sufficiently effective except in some severe cases.
  • the effects of schizophrenia drugs are limited to some symptoms such as hallucinations and delusions.
  • the classification of mental illness is not well established. For example, there are multiple pathologies of mental illness diagnosed as depression, but currently prescribed antidepressants have a therapeutic effect only in some pathologies. Therefore, the development of essential treatments for mental illness requires the development of new classifications based on biological evidence and appropriate diagnostic techniques.
  • a biomarker is a substance such as a nucleic acid or protein produced by a cell in response to the onset of a specific disease, and the presence, severity, or prognosis of an abundance or variation in body fluids or tissues. Therefore, it can be a discriminator for disease determination and treatment guideline determination.
  • Non-Patent Documents 6 and 7 In the field of mental illness, biomarker searches for schizophrenia, depression, or bipolar disorder have been conducted so far, and various candidate molecules such as cytokines and neurotrophic factors have been proposed. However, most of them do not have a sufficient detection effect, and practical biomarkers for mental illness have not been developed yet (Non-Patent Documents 6 and 7).
  • the problem of diagnostic criteria is that, when searching for biomarkers, candidate molecules are selected based only on the significant difference between the mean values of the patient group and the healthy group.
  • Mental illness is a syndrome, and it is likely that there are multiple conditions in the syndrome. Therefore, even if a substance can be a useful biomarker for some pathological conditions, if the ratio of the pathological condition in all cases is small, it may be buried and excluded by a significant difference test.
  • blood or postmortem brain was used as a biomarker search sample.
  • Blood directly contacts various organs such as the brain, intestines, liver, and muscles.
  • a blood-brain barrier exists between the brain and other organs, and exchange of substances in the blood is restricted. Therefore, in the biomarker search using blood, particularly peripheral blood, it is highly likely that it is difficult to detect changes in substances characteristic of the brain due to the influence of other organs. That is, there is a problem that blood is noisy and hardly reflects the state of the brain.
  • the postmortem brain is superior in that it uses the target organ itself, which is thought to be the cause of mental illness, and maintains the three-dimensional structure of the brain, but unlike animal experiments that can be removed immediately after death, the human brain is the cause of death. And changes due to postmortem changes are likely to make it difficult to detect changes in important candidate molecules such as neurotransmitters and signal molecules. Furthermore, in neuropathology and brain imaging research, no foci specific to each mental disorder have been found so far, and unlike Parkinson's disease, the superiority of maintaining the three-dimensional structure of the brain is poor.
  • the present invention provides a highly practical psychiatric disease determination marker that can solve the above-mentioned problems and can easily and accurately determine a psychiatric disease such as schizophrenia, depression, or bipolar disorder in a subject.

  • Cerebrospinal fluid is a colorless and transparent fluid that exists only around the brain and spinal cord, separated from the other organs by the dura mater, and by the blood-brain barrier and the blood-cerebrospinal fluid barrier .
  • Cerebrospinal fluid Exudes from the parenchyma of the brain and that there is virtually no barrier between brain cells and cerebrospinal fluid.
  • proteins and mRNAs have been mainly used as disease determination markers.
  • proteins can be measured in cerebrospinal fluid, there is a problem that when drug discovery is performed, compounds that inhibit the function must be searched simultaneously.
  • mRNA markers are scarcely present in cerebrospinal fluid and are thought to be poorly correlated with central nervous system expression. Therefore, the present inventors decided to use miRNA instead of protein or mRNA as a psychiatric disorder determination marker.
  • miRNA may be involved in pathological conditions through the regulation of gene expression, and its function can be easily inhibited by artificially synthesized antisense nucleic acid molecules (Weiler J et al., Gene). Ther. 13: 496-502, 2006).
