Abstract
Bipolar disorder (BD) across different clinical stages may present shared and distinct changes in brain activity. We aimed to reveal the neuroimaging homogeneity and heterogeneity of BD and its relationship with clinical variables and genetic variations. In present study, we conducted fractional amplitude of low-frequency fluctuations (fALFF), functional connectivity (FC) and genetic neuroimaging association analyses with 32 depressed, 26 manic, 35 euthymic BD patients and 87 healthy controls (HCs). Significant differences were found in the bilateral pre/subgenual anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) across the four groups, and all bipolar patients exhibited decreased fALFF values in the ACC when compared to HCs. Furthermore, positive associations were significantly observed between fALFF values in the pre/subgenual ACC and participants' cognitive functioning. No significant changes were found in ACC-based FC. We identified fALFF-alteration-related genes in BD, with enrichment in biological progress including synaptic and ion transmission. Taken together, abnormal activity in ACC is a characteristic change associated with BD, regardless of specific mood stages, serving as a potential neuroimaging feature in BD patients. Our genetic neuroimaging association analysis highlights possible heterogeneity in biological processes that could be responsible for different clinical stages in BD.

Comprehensive assessment of sleep duration, insomnia, and brain structure within the UK Biobank cohort. Sleep 2024; 47:zsad274.

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVES To assess for associations between sleeping more than or less than recommended by the National Sleep Foundation (NSF), and self-reported insomnia, with brain structure. METHODS Data from the UK Biobank cohort were analyzed (N between 9K and 32K, dependent on availability, aged 44 to 82 years). Sleep measures included self-reported adherence to NSF guidelines on sleep duration (sleeping between 7 and 9 hours per night), and self-reported difficulty falling or staying asleep (insomnia). Brain structural measures included global and regional cortical or subcortical morphometry (thickness, surface area, volume), global and tract-related white matter microstructure, brain age gap (difference between chronological age and age estimated from brain scan), and total volume of white matter lesions. RESULTS Longer-than-recommended sleep duration was associated with lower overall grey and white matter volumes, lower global and regional cortical thickness and volume measures, higher brain age gap, higher volume of white matter lesions, higher mean diffusivity globally and in thalamic and association fibers, and lower volume of the hippocampus. Shorter-than-recommended sleep duration was related to higher global and cerebellar white matter volumes, lower global and regional cortical surface areas, and lower fractional anisotropy in projection fibers. Self-reported insomnia was associated with higher global gray and white matter volumes, and with higher volumes of the amygdala, hippocampus, and putamen. CONCLUSIONS Sleeping longer than recommended by the NSF is associated with a wide range of differences in brain structure, potentially indicative of poorer brain health. Sleeping less than recommended is distinctly associated with lower cortical surface areas. Future studies should assess the potential mechanisms of these differences and investigate long sleep duration as a putative marker of brain health.

Early longitudinal changes in brain structure and cognitive functioning in remitted patients with recently diagnosed bipolar disorder. J Affect Disord 2023; 339:153-161.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with bipolar disorder (BD) who are presenting with cognitive impairment and associated structural brain abnormalities have generally a poorer clinical outcome. This study aims to map the early longitudinal trajectories in brain structure and cognition in patients with recently diagnosed BD. METHODS Fully or partially remitted patients with a recent diagnosis of BD and matched healthy controls (HC) underwent structural MRI and neuropsychological testing at baseline (BD n = 97; HC n = 66) and again following an average of 16 (range 6-27) months (BD n = 50; HC n = 38). We investigated the differential trajectories in BD vs. HC in cortical gray matter volume and thickness, total cerebral white matter, hippocampal and amygdala volumes, estimated brain age, and cognitive functioning using linear mixed models. Within patients, we further investigated whether brain structural abnormalities detected at baseline were associated with subsequent mood episodes. RESULTS Compared to HC, patients showed a decline in total white matter volume over time and they had a larger amygdala volume, both at baseline and at follow-up time. Patients further showed lower cognitive performance at both times of investigation with no significant change over time. There were no differences between patients and HC in cortical gray matter volume or thickness, hippocampal volume, or brain-aging patterns. CONCLUSIONS Cognitive impairment and amygdala enlargement may represent stable markers of BD early in the course of illness, whereas subtle white matter decline may result from illness progression.

Abstract
Hypomanic personality manifests a close link with several psychiatric disorders and its abnormality is a risk indicator for developing bipolar disorders. We systematically investigated the potential neuroanatomical and functional substrates underlying hypomanic personality trait (HPT) and its sub-dimensions (i.e., Social Vitality, Mood Volatility, and Excitement) combined with structural and functional imaging data as well as their corresponding brain networks in a large non-clinical sample across two studies (n = 464). Behaviorally, HPT, specifically Mood Volatility and Excitement, was positively associated with aggressive behaviors in both studies. Structurally, sex-specific morphological characteristics were further observed in the motor and top-down control networks especially for Mood Volatility, although HPT was generally positively associated with grey matter volumes (GMVs) in the prefrontal, temporal, visual, and limbic systems. Functionally, brain activations related to immediate or delayed losses were found to predict individual variability in HPT, specifically Social Vitality and Excitement, on the motor and prefrontal-parietal cortices. Topologically, connectome-based prediction model analysis further revealed the predictive role of individual-level morphological and resting-state functional connectivity on HPT and its sub-dimensions, although it did not reveal any links with general brain topological properties. GMVs in the temporal, limbic (e.g., amygdala), and visual cortices mediated the effects of HPT on behavioral aggression. These findings suggest that the imbalance between motor and control circuits may be critical for HPT and provide novel insights into the neuroanatomical, functional, and topological mechanisms underlying the specific temperament and its impacts on aggression.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To elucidate the relationship between the course of bipolar disorder (BD) and structural brain changes across the life span, we conducted a systematic review of longitudinal imaging studies in adolescent and adult BD patients. METHODS Eleven studies with 329 BD patients and 277 controls met our PICOS criteria (participants, intervention, comparison, outcome and study design): BD diagnosis based on DSM criteria, natural course of disease, comparison of grey matter changes in BD individuals over ≥1-year interval between scans. RESULTS The selected studies yielded heterogeneous findings, partly due to varying patient characteristics, data acquisition and statistical models. Mood episodes were associated with greater grey matter loss in frontal brain regions over time. Brain volume decreased or remained stable in adolescent patients, whereas it increased in healthy adolescents. Adult BD patients showed increased cortical thinning and brain structural decline. In particular, disease onset in adolescence was associated with amygdala volume reduction, which was not reported in adult BD. CONCLUSIONS The evidence collected suggests that the progression of BD impairs adolescent brain development and accelerates structural brain decline across the lifespan. Age-specific changes in amygdala volume in adolescent BD suggest that reduced amygdala volume is a correlate of early onset BD. Clarifying the role of BD in brain development across the lifespan promises a deeper understanding of the progression of BD patients through different developmental episodes.

Abstract
Cross-sectional neuroimaging studies show that bipolar disorder is associated with structural brain abnormalities, predominantly observed in prefrontal and temporal cortex, cingulate gyrus, and subcortical regions. However, longitudinal studies are needed to elucidate whether these abnormalities presage disease onset or are consequences of disease processes, and to identify potential contributing factors. Here, we narratively review and summarize longitudinal structural magnetic resonance imaging studies that relate imaging outcomes to manic episodes. First, we conclude that longitudinal brain imaging studies suggest an association of bipolar disorder with aberrant brain changes, including both deviant decreases and increases in morphometric measures. Second, we conclude that manic episodes have been related to accelerated cortical volume and thickness decreases, with the most consistent findings occurring in prefrontal brain areas. Importantly, evidence also suggests that in contrast to healthy controls, who in general show age-related cortical decline, brain metrics remain stable or increase during euthymic periods in bipolar disorder patients, potentially reflecting structural recovering mechanisms. The findings stress the importance of preventing manic episodes. We further propose a model of prefrontal cortical trajectories in relation to the occurrence of manic episodes. Finally, we discuss potential mechanisms at play, remaining limitations, and future directions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is ongoing debate on the nosological position of bipolar disorder (BD) and borderline personality disorder (BPD). Identifying the unique and shared risks, developmental pathways, and symptoms in emerging BD and BPD could help the field refine aetiological hypotheses and improve the prediction of the onset of these disorders. This study aimed to: (a) systematically synthesise the available evidence from systematic reviews (SRs) and meta-analyses (MAs) concerning environmental, psychosocial, biological, and clinical factors leading to the emergence of BD and BPD; (b) identify the main differences and common features between the two disorders to characterise their complex interplay and, (c) highlight remaining evidence gaps. METHODS Data sources were; PubMed, PsychINFO, Embase, Cochrane, CINAHL, Medline, ISI Web of Science. Overlap of included SRs/MAs was assessed using the corrected covered area process. The methodological quality of each included SR and MA was assessed using the AMSTAR. RESULTS 22 SRs and MAs involving 249 prospective studies met eligibility criteria. Results demonstrated that family history of psychopathology, affective instability, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, anxiety disorders, depression, sleep disturbances, substance abuse, psychotic symptoms, suicidality, childhood adversity and temperament were common predisposing factors across both disorders. There are also distinct factors specific to emerging BD or BPD. CONCLUSIONS Prospective studies are required to increase our understanding of the development of BD and BPD onset and their complex interplay by concurrently examining multiple measures in BD and BPD at-risk populations.

Abstract
Distinguishing bipolar depression (BD) from unipolar depression (UD) based on symptoms only is challenging. Brain functional connectivity (FC), especially dynamic FC, has emerged as a promising approach to identify possible imaging markers for differentiating BD from UD. However, most of such studies utilized conventional FC and group-level statistical comparisons, which may not be sensitive enough to quantify subtle changes in the FC dynamics between BD and UD. In this paper, we present a more effective individualized differentiation model based on machine learning and the whole-brain high-order functional connectivity (HOFC) network. The HOFC, capturing temporal synchronization among the dynamic FC time series, a more complex chronnectome metric compared to the conventional FC, was used to classify 52 BD, 73 UD, and 76 healthy controls (HC). We achieved a satisfactory accuracy (70.40%) in BD vs. UD differentiation. The resultant contributing features revealed the involvement of the coordinated flexible interactions among sensory (e.g., olfaction, vision, and audition), motor, and cognitive systems. Despite sharing common chronnectome of cognitive and affective impairments, BD and UD also demonstrated unique dynamic FC synchronization patterns. UD is more associated with abnormal visual-somatomotor inter-network connections, while BD is more related to impaired ventral attention-frontoparietal inter-network connections. Moreover, we found that the illness duration modulated the BD vs. UD separation, with the differentiation performance hampered by the secondary disease effects. Our findings suggest that BD and UD may have divergent and convergent neural substrates, which further expand our knowledge of the two different mental disorders.

Abstract
Background: In the treatment of patients with bipolar disorder (BP), antidepressant-induced mania is usually observed. The rate of phase switching (from depressive to manic) in these patients exceeds 22%. The exploration of brain activity patterns during an antidepressant-induced manic phase may aid the development of strategies to reduce the phase-switching rate. The use of a murine model to explore brain activity patterns in depressive and manic phases can help us to understandthe pathological features of BP. The novel object recognition preference ratio is used to assess cognitive ability in such models. Objective: To investigate brain Ca2+ activity and behavioral expression in the depressive and manic phases in the same murine model, to aid understanding of brain activity patterns in phase switching in BP. Methods: In vivo two-photon imaging was used to observe brain activity alterations in a murine model in which induce depressive-like and manic-like behaviors were induced sequentially. The immobility time was used to assess depressive-like symptoms and the total distance traveled was used to assess manic-like symptoms. Results: In vivo two-photon imaging revealed significantly reduced brain Ca2+ activity in temporal cortex pyramidal neurons in the depressive phase in mice exposed to chronic unpredictable mild stress compared with naïve controls. The brain Ca2+ activity correlated negatively with the novel object recognition preference ratio within the immobility time. Significantly increased brain Ca2+ activity was observed in the ketamine-induced manic phase. However, this activity did not correlate with the total distance traveled. The novel object recognition preference ratio correlated negatively with the total distance traveled in the manic phase.

Calcium imaging reveals depressive- and manic-phase-specific brain neural activity patterns in a murine model of bipolar disorder: a pilot study. Transl Psychiatry 2021; 11:619. [PMID: 34876553 PMCID: PMC8651770 DOI: 10.1038/s41398-021-01750-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/01/2021] [Revised: 11/18/2021] [Accepted: 11/29/2021] [Indexed: 12/25/2022] Open
Abstract
Brain pathological features during manic/hypomanic and depressive episodes in the same patients with bipolar disorder (BPD) have not been described precisely. The study aimed to investigate depressive and manic-phase-specific brain neural activity patterns of BPD in the same murine model to provide information guiding investigation of the mechanism of phase switching and tailored prevention and treatment for patients with BPD. In vivo two-photon imaging was used to observe brain activity alterations in the depressive and manic phases in the same murine model of BPD. Two-photon imaging showed significantly reduced Ca2+ activity in temporal cortex pyramidal neurons in the depression phase in mice exposed to chronic unpredictable mild stress (CUMS), but not in the manic phase in mice exposed to CUMS and ketamine. Total integrated calcium values correlated significantly with immobility times. Brain Ca2+ hypoactivity was observed in the depression and manic phases in the same mice exposed to CUMS and ketamine relative to naïve controls. The novel object recognition preference ratio correlated negatively with the immobility time in the depression phase and the total distance traveled in the manic phase. With recognition of its limitations, this study revealed brain neural activity impairment indicating that intrinsic emotional network disturbance is a mechanism of BPD and that brain neural activity is associated with cognitive impairment in the depressive and manic phases of this disorder. These findings are consistent with those from macro-imaging studies of patients with BPD. The observed correlation of brain neural activity with the severity of depressive, but not manic, symptoms need to be investigated further.
