1 Schizophrenia: Uncovering a molecular origin so humanity may better deal with insanity :
2 What is Schizophrenia? Literally split mind A mental disorder comprising most major psychotic disorders; characterized by disturbances in form and content of thought, sense of self and relationship to the external world. A disease of neural connections within the brain that is expressed clinically as a disease of the mind.
3 DSM-IV Diagnostic Criteria A. Characteristic symptoms B. Two (or more) of the following, present for a significant time 1. Delusions 2. Hallucinations 3. Disorganized speech 4. Grossly disorganized or catatonic behavior
4 Criteria (continued) 5. Negative symptoms B. Social/occupational dysfunction C. Duration: Continuous disturbance for at least 6 months; at least one month of active-phase symptoms D. Exclusions E. (mood disorders, substance abuse, etc)
5 Schizophrenia Subtypes Paranoid Type A. Preoccupation with one or more delusions or frequent auditory hallucinations B. None of the following is prominent: disorganized speech, disorganized or catatonic behavior, or flat/inappropriate effect
6 Subtypes (continued) Catatonic Type Dominance by at least two of the following: 1. Motor immobility 2. Excessive motor activity 3. Extreme negativism 4. Peculiar voluntary movements
7 Subtypes (continued) Disorganized -Disorganized speech and behavior, flat or inappropriate affect Undifferentiated Residual
8 Development of Schizophrenia
9 Genetic Linkage to Schizophrenia
10 Etiology of Schizophrenia Genetic Links - Tends to run in families, but non-medelian inheritance patterns Schizophrenia Susceptibility Locus (SSL) -5q Glucocorticoid Receptor (?) Reports of trisomy in some schizophrenics, but many have no abnormalities here -22q11-q13
11 22q(Syn3 gene) Synapsin Protein
12 Genetic Epidemiology (cont) 3q13.3 Dopamine receptor subtype 3 (D3) -Autoreceptor and postsynaptic receptor. -localized to limbic areas of the brain, which are associated with cognitive, emotional, and endocrine functions -Two fold increase of D3 mrna on lymphocytes in schizophrenics -possible diagnostic test (Ilani et al, 2001)
13 Genetic Epidemiology (continued) Dinucleotide polymorphism at 15q13-q14, the site of the CHRNA7 gene Codes for alpha-7 neuronal nicotinic receptor subunit, the major component of brain nicotinic receptors Sensory input filtering deficiency runs in families with schizophrenics attentional disturbances diminished inhibition (Freedman et al, 1997)
14 Empirical evidence of nicotinic receptor dysfunction Comorbidy with nicotine dependence 3 fold increase in smoking Medication issues
15 Chromosomal variances associated with schizophrenia
16 Is schizophrenia caused by anatomical abnormalities? Subtle neuro-anatomical differences often found, but inconsistent smaller limbic parts of temporal lobe MRI & Pet Scans Inappropriate connections formed during fetal development; dormancy until puberty role of sex hormones (?)
17 Pet scans during memory tasks
18 Neurotransmitter involvement in schizophrenia acetylcholine dopamine norepinephrine serotonin
19 Dopaminergic Involvement Dopamine theory of schizophrenia Certain areas of the brain do not regulate dopamine correctly and this leads to psychosis Types of Dopamine Receptors D1: D1A, D1B D2 like: D2, D3, D4 D1 and D2 like exert opposite intracellular effects
20 Classical Antipsychotics Drugs Antagonism of D2 receptors (and sometimes D2 and D4) results in lessening of positive symptoms Decrease in confusion and disorganization is greatest. Delusions and hallucinations often persist but are more manageable. Chlorpromazine (Thorazine) Molindone (Moban)
21 Alternative Mechanisms Besides Dopamine Receptor Antagonism Lessons learned from psychedelics and dissociative-anestheticpsychedelics
22 Serotonin Involvement Psychedelic drugs that may lead to symptoms similar to schizophrenia (e.g. LSD, DMT, psilocybin) are 5HT2 agonists. Many atypical antipsychotics are 5HT2 antagonists Advantages over classical antipsychotics Relieves more negative symptoms Fewer side effects (less cognitive inhibition) Can treat psychotic parkinsonian patients Background: Quetiapine a novel antipsychotic
23 Glutamine and NMDA Receptor Involvement Dissociative/anesthetic psychedelics like ketamine and PCP are non-competitive N-methyl-Daspartate-glutamate (NMDA) receptor antagonists NMDA receptor hypofunction hypothesis: Lack of NMDA receptor activity leads to an increased output of glutamate and acetylcholine. This leads to damage of cortico neurons Genetically engineered mice with 95% fewer NMDA receptors showed schizophrenic like behavior (Mohn et al, 1999)
24 Pharmacology of Antipsychotics DRUG CHEMICAL RECEPTOR SEDATION INVOLUN. CLASS TARGET MVMT. Chlorpromazine Phenothiazine D1-4; alpha-1;h1; mach High Moderate Haloperidol Butyrophenone D2-D4; alpha-1; H1 Low Very High Thioridazine Phenothiazine D1-D4, mach, alpha-1, H1 High Low Clozapine NOVEL D1-2; 5HT2A; alpha 1,2; H1; ACH Moderate Low Quetiapine NOVEL 5HT2a, D2, H1, Alpha-1,2 Moderate to Low Low
25 Receptor Blockade and Associated Side Effects D 2 receptors Extrapyrimdal movement disorders, prolactin increase (gynecomastia, menstrual changes, sexual dysfunction) mach receptors Blurred vision, dry mouth, constipation, urinary retention, memory dysfunction H 1 receptors Sedation, drowsiness, weight gain 5-HT 2A receptors Unknown; appears to be mostly beneficial
26 Selected Brain Structures Involved in Antipsychotic Activity Limbic System Related structures that control emotion, motivation, and memory. Contains amygdala and hippocampus. Dopaminergic activity here likely responsible for positive symptoms Hypothalamus-Pituitary Many of the older antipsychotic s adverse effects are due to action here. Regulation of prolactin, rewards of everyday activities, temperature regulation Reticular formation Located In brain stem; acts as sensory reduction filter
27 Outlook and Summary Intermittent symptoms across lifespan is common in most patients, negative symptoms are more persistent, relapses are frequent but Early treatment with antipsychotics, especially the new generation agents, combined with rehabilitation allows a high degree of integration into society Schizophrenia does not follow a single metabolic pathway. Schizophrenia is a broad term and varying forms based on genetic or behavioral differences will likely be further differentiated Biological, psychological, and social factors must be addressed for optimal recovery
