Liu S, Chen J, Guan L, Xu L, Cai H, Wang J, Zhu DM, Zhu J, Yu Y. The brain, rapid eye movement sleep, and major depressive disorder: A multimodal neuroimaging study. Prog Neuropsychopharmacol Biol Psychiatry 2024; 136:111151.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Evidence has established the prominent involvement of rapid eye movement (REM) sleep disturbance in major depressive disorder (MDD). However, the neural correlates of REM sleep in MDD and their clinical significance are less clear. METHODS Cross-sectional and longitudinal polysomnography and resting-state functional MRI data were collected from 131 MDD patients and 71 healthy controls to measure REM sleep and voxel-mirrored homotopic connectivity (VMHC). Correlation and mediation analyses were performed to examine the associations between REM sleep, VMHC, and clinical variables. Moreover, we conducted spatial correlations between the neural correlates of REM sleep and a multimodal collection of reference brain maps to facilitate genetic, structural and functional annotations. RESULTS MDD patients exhibited REM sleep abnormalities manifesting as higher REM sleep latency and lower REM sleep duration, which were correlated with decreased VMHC of the precentral gyrus and inferior parietal lobe and mediated their associations with more severe anxiety symptoms. Longitudinal data showed that VMHC increase of the inferior parietal lobe was related to improvement of depression symptoms in MDD patients. Spatial correlation analyses revealed that the neural correlates of REM sleep in MDD were linked to gene categories primarily involving cellular metabolic process, signal pathway, and ion channel activity as well as linked to cortical microstructure, metabolism, electrophysiology, and cannabinoid receptor. CONCLUSION These findings may add important context to the growing literature on the complex interplay between sleep and MDD, and more broadly may inform future treatment for depression via regulating sleep.

Demyelination in Patients with POST-COVID Depression. J Clin Med 2024; 13:4692. [PMID: 39200834 PMCID: PMC11355865 DOI: 10.3390/jcm13164692] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/14/2024] [Revised: 07/31/2024] [Accepted: 08/06/2024] [Indexed: 09/02/2024] Open
Abstract
Background: Depression is one of the most severe sequelae of COVID-19, with major depressive disorder often characterized by disruption in white matter (WM) connectivity stemming from changes in brain myelination. This study aimed to quantitatively assess brain myelination in clinically diagnosed post-COVID depression (PCD) using the recently proposed MRI method, macromolecular proton fraction (MPF) mapping. Methods: The study involved 63 recovered COVID-19 patients (52 mild, 11 moderate, and 2 severe) at 13.5 ± 10.0 months post-recovery, with matched controls without prior COVID-19 history (n = 19). A post-COVID depression group (PCD, n = 25) was identified based on psychiatric diagnosis, while a comparison group (noPCD, n = 38) included participants with neurological COVID-19 complications, excluding clinical depression. Results: Fast MPF mapping revealed extensive demyelination in PCD patients, particularly in juxtacortical WM (predominantly occipital lobe and medial surface), WM tracts (inferior fronto-occipital fasciculus (IFOF), posterior thalamic radiation, external capsule, sagittal stratum, tapetum), and grey matter (GM) structures (hippocampus, putamen, globus pallidus, and amygdala). The noPCD group also displayed notable demyelination, but with less magnitude and propagation. Multiple regression analysis highlighted IFOF demyelination as the primary predictor of Hamilton scores, PCD presence, and severity. The number of post-COVID symptoms was a significant predictor of PCD presence, while the number of acute symptoms was a significant predictor of PCD severity. Conclusions: This study, for the first time, reveals extensive demyelination in numerous WM and GM structures in PCD, outlining IFOF demyelination as a key biomarker.

Abstract
47,XXX (Triple X syndrome) is a sex chromosome aneuploidy characterized by the presence of a supernumerary X chromosome in affected females and is associated with a variable cognitive, behavioral, and psychiatric phenotype. The effect of a supernumerary X chromosome in affected females on intracortical microstructure is currently unknown. Therefore, we conducted 7 Tesla structural MRI and compared T1 (ms), as a proxy for intracortical myelin (ICM), across laminae of 21 adult women with 47,XXX and 22 age-matched typically developing females using laminar analyses. Relationships between phenotypic traits and T1 values in 47,XXX were also investigated. Adults with 47,XXX showed higher bilateral T1 across supragranular laminae in the banks of the superior temporal sulcus, and in the right inferior temporal gyrus, suggesting decreases of ICM primarily within the temporal cortex in 47,XXX. Higher social functioning in 47,XXX was related to larger inferior temporal gyrus ICM content. Our findings indicate an effect of a supernumerary X chromosome in adult-aged women on ICM across supragranular laminae within the temporal cortex. These findings provide insight into the role of X chromosome dosage on ICM across laminae. Future research is warranted to further explore the functional significance of altered ICM across laminae in 47,XXX.

Quantitative MRI at 7-Tesla reveals novel frontocortical myeloarchitecture anomalies in major depressive disorder. Transl Psychiatry 2024; 14:262. [PMID: 38902245 PMCID: PMC11190139 DOI: 10.1038/s41398-024-02976-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/09/2023] [Revised: 05/31/2024] [Accepted: 06/04/2024] [Indexed: 06/22/2024] Open
Abstract
Whereas meta-analytical data highlight abnormal frontocortical macrostructure (thickness/surface area/volume) in Major Depressive Disorder (MDD), the underlying microstructural processes remain uncharted, due to the use of conventional MRI scanners and acquisition techniques. We uniquely combined Ultra-High Field MRI at 7.0 Tesla with Quantitative Imaging to map intracortical myelin (proxied by longitudinal relaxation time T1) and iron concentration (proxied by transverse relaxation time T2*), microstructural processes deemed particularly germane to cortical macrostructure. Informed by meta-analytical evidence, we focused specifically on orbitofrontal and rostral anterior cingulate cortices among adult MDD patients (N = 48) and matched healthy controls (HC; N = 10). Analyses probed the association of MDD diagnosis and clinical profile (severity, medication use, comorbid anxiety disorders, childhood trauma) with aforementioned microstructural properties. MDD diagnosis (p's < 0.05, Cohen's D = 0.55-0.66) and symptom severity (p's < 0.01, r = 0.271-0.267) both related to decreased intracortical myelination (higher T1 values) within the lateral orbitofrontal cortex, a region tightly coupled to processing negative affect and feelings of sadness in MDD. No relations were found with local iron concentrations. These findings allow uniquely fine-grained insights on frontocortical microstructure in MDD, and cautiously point to intracortical demyelination as a possible driver of macroscale cortical disintegrity in MDD.

Abstract
Background Although enlargement of the lateral ventricles was previously observed in individuals with mood disorders, the link between ventricular size and asymmetry with other indices of brain structure remains underexplored. In this study, we examined the association of lateral ventricular size and asymmetry with cortical myelin content in individuals with bipolar (BD) and depressive (DD) disorders compared to healthy controls (HC). Methods Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was used to obtain T1w and T2w images from 149 individuals (age=27.7 (SD=6.1) years, 78% female, BD=38, DD=57, HC=54). Cortical myelin content was calculated using the T1w/T2w ratio. Elastic net regularized regression identified brain regions whose myelin content was associated with ventricular size and asymmetry. A post-hoc linear regression examined how participants' diagnosis, illness duration, and current level of depression moderated the relationship between the size and asymmetry of the lateral ventricles and levels of cortical myelin in the selected brain regions. Results Individuals with mood disorders had larger lateral ventricles than HC. Larger ventricles and lower asymmetry were observed in individuals with BD who had longer lifetime illness duration and more severe current depressive symptoms. A greater left asymmetry was observed in participants with DD than in those with BD (p<0.01). Elastic net revealed that both ventricular enlargement and asymmetry were associated with altered myelin content in cingulate, frontal, and sensorimotor cortices. In BD, but not other groups, ventricular enlargement was related to altered myelin content in the right insular regions. Conclusions Lateral ventricular enlargement and asymmetry are linked to myelin content imbalance, thus, potentially leading to emotional and cognitive dysfunction in mood disorders.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Neutrophils are traditionally viewed as first responders but have a short onset of action in response to traumatic brain injury (TBI). However, the heterogeneity, multifunctionality, and time-dependent modulation of brain damage and outcome mediated by neutrophils after TBI remain poorly understood. METHODS Using the combined single-cell transcriptomics, metabolomics, and proteomics analysis from TBI patients and the TBI mouse model, we investigate a novel neutrophil phenotype and its associated effects on TBI outcome by neurological deficit scoring and behavioral tests. We also characterized the underlying mechanisms both in vitro and in vivo through molecular simulations, signaling detections, gene expression regulation assessments [including dual-luciferase reporter and chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) assays], primary cultures or co-cultures of neutrophils and oligodendrocytes, intracellular iron, and lipid hydroperoxide concentration measurements, as well as forkhead box protein O1 (FOXO1) conditional knockout mice. RESULTS We identified that high expression of the FOXO1 protein was induced in neutrophils after TBI both in TBI patients and the TBI mouse model. Infiltration of these FOXO1high neutrophils in the brain was detected not only in the acute phase but also in the chronic phase post-TBI, aggravating acute brain inflammatory damage and promoting late TBI-induced depression. In the acute stage, FOXO1 upregulated cytoplasmic Versican (VCAN) to interact with the apoptosis regulator B-cell lymphoma-2 (BCL-2)-associated X protein (BAX), suppressing the mitochondrial translocation of BAX, which mediated the antiapoptotic effect companied with enhancing interleukin-6 (IL-6) production of FOXO1high neutrophils. In the chronic stage, the "FOXO1-transferrin receptor (TFRC)" mechanism contributes to FOXO1high neutrophil ferroptosis, disturbing the iron homeostasis of oligodendrocytes and inducing a reduction in myelin basic protein, which contributes to the progression of late depression after TBI. CONCLUSIONS FOXO1high neutrophils represent a novel neutrophil phenotype that emerges in response to acute and chronic TBI, which provides insight into the heterogeneity, reprogramming activity, and versatility of neutrophils in TBI.

Abstract
Over the past six decades, the use of ketamine has evolved from an anesthetic and recreational drug to the first non-monoaminergic antidepressant approved for treatment-resistant major depressive disorder (MDD). Subanesthetic doses of ketamine and its enantiomer (S)-ketamine (esketamine) directly bind to several neurotransmitter receptors [including N-methyl-d-aspartic acid receptor (NMDAR), κ and μ opioid receptor (KOR and MOR)] widely distributed in the brain and across different cell types, implicating several potential molecular mechanisms underlying the action of ketamine as an antidepressant. This review examines preclinical studies investigating cell-type-specific mechanisms underlying the effects of ketamine on behavior and synapses. Cell-type-specific approaches are crucial for disentangling the critical mechanisms involved in the therapeutic effect of ketamine.

Abstract
Purpose Previous studies have demonstrated that three-dimensional (3D) volumetric renderings of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) brain data can be used to identify patients using facial recognition. We have shown that facial features can be identified on simulation-computed tomography (CT) images for radiation oncology and mapped to face images from a database. We aim to determine whether CT images can be anonymized using anonymization software that was designed for T1-weighted MRI data. Approach Our study examines (1) the ability of off-the-shelf anonymization algorithms to anonymize CT data and (2) the ability of facial recognition algorithms to identify whether faces could be detected from a database of facial images. Our study generated 3D renderings from 57 head CT scans from The Cancer Imaging Archive database. Data were anonymized using AFNI (deface, reface, and 3Dskullstrip) and FSL's BET. Anonymized data were compared to the original renderings and passed through facial recognition algorithms (VGG-Face, FaceNet, DLib, and SFace) using a facial database (labeled faces in the wild) to determine what matches could be found. Results Our study found that all modules were able to process CT data and that AFNI's 3Dskullstrip and FSL's BET data consistently showed lower reidentification rates compared to the original. Conclusions The results from this study highlight the potential usage of anonymization algorithms as a clinical standard for deidentifying brain CT data. Our study demonstrates the importance of continued vigilance for patient privacy in publicly shared datasets and the importance of continued evaluation of anonymization methods for CT data.

Photobiomodulation attenuates oligodendrocyte dysfunction and prevents adverse neurological consequences in a rat model of early life adversity. Theranostics 2023; 13:913-930. [PMID: 36793860 PMCID: PMC9925323 DOI: 10.7150/thno.78777] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/09/2022] [Accepted: 01/04/2023] [Indexed: 02/04/2023] Open
Abstract
Rationale: Adverse experiences in early life including abuse, trauma and neglect, have been linked to poor physical and mental health outcomes. Emerging evidence implies that those who experienced early life adversity (ELA) are more likely to develop cognitive dysfunction and depressive-like symptoms in adulthood. The molecular mechanisms responsible for the negative consequences of ELA, however, remain unclear. In the absence of effective management options, anticipatory guidance is the mainstay of ELA prevention. Furthermore, there is no available treatment that prevents or alleviates the neurologic sequelae of ELA, especially traumatic stress. Hence, the present study aims to investigate the mechanisms for these associations and evaluate whether photobiomodulation (PBM), a non-invasive therapeutic procedure, can prevent the negative cognitive and behavioral manifestations of ELA in later life. Methods: ELA was induced by repeated inescapable electric foot shock of rats from postnatal day 21 to 26. On the day immediately following the last foot shock, 2-min daily PBM treatment was applied transcranially for 7 consecutive days. Cognitive dysfunction and depression-like behaviors were measured by a battery of behavioral tests in adulthood. Subsequently, oligodendrocyte progenitor cells (OPCs) differentiation, the proliferation and apoptosis of oligodendrocyte lineage cells (OLs), mature oligodendrocyte, myelinating oligodendrocyte, the level of oxidative damage, reactive oxygen species (ROS) and total antioxidant capacity were measured and analyzed using immunofluorescence staining, capillary-based immunoassay (ProteinSimple®) and antioxidant assay kit. Results: The rats exposed to ELA exhibited obvious oligodendrocyte dysfunction, including a reduction in OPCs differentiation, diminished generation and survival of OLs, decreased OLs, and decreased matured oligodendrocyte. Furthermore, a deficit in myelinating oligodendrocytes was observed, in conjunction with an imbalance in redox homeostasis and accumulated oxidative damage. These alternations were concomitant with cognitive dysfunction and depression-like behaviors. Importantly, we found that early PBM treatment largely prevented these pathologies and reversed the neurologic sequelae resulting from ELA. Conclusions: Collectively, these findings provide new insights into the mechanism by which ELA affects neurological outcomes. Moreover, our findings support that PBM may be a promising strategy to prevent ELA-induced neurologic sequelae that develops later in life.

Abstract
The T1w/T2w ratio is a novel magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) measure that is thought to be sensitive to cortical myelin. Using this novel measure requires developing novel pipelines for the data quality assurance, data analysis, and validation of the findings in order to apply the T1w/T2w ratio for classification of disorders associated with the changes in the myelin levels. In this article, we provide a detailed description of such a pipeline as well as the reference to the scripts used in our recent report that applied the T1w/T2w ratio and machine learning to classify individuals with depressive disorders from healthy controls.
