Abstract
Olanzapine is one of the most effective medicines available for stabilizing schizophrenia spectrum disorders. However, it has been reported to show the greatest propensity for inducing body weight gain and producing metabolic side effects, which cause a great burden in patients with psychiatric disorders. Since the gut microbiota has a profound impact on the initiation and development of metabolic diseases, we conducted a longitudinal study to explore its role in olanzapine-induced obesity and metabolic abnormalities. Female Sprague-Dawley rats were treated with different doses of olanzapine, and metabolic and inflammatory markers were measured. Olanzapine significantly induced body weight gain (up to a 2.1-fold change), which was accompanied by hepatic inflammation and increased plasma triglyceride levels (up to a 2.9-fold change), as well as gut microbiota dysbiosis. Subsequently, fuzzy c-means clustering was used to characterize three clusters of longitudinal trajectories for microbial fluctuations: (i) genera continuing to increase, (ii) genera continuing to decrease, and (iii) genera temporarily changing. Among them, Enterorhabdus (r = 0.38), Parasutterella (r = 0.43), and Prevotellaceae UCG-001 (r = 0.52) positively correlated with body weight gain. In addition, two MetaCyc metabolic pathways were identified as associated with olanzapine-induced body weight gain, including the superpathway of glucose and xylose degradation and the superpathway of l-threonine biosynthesis. In conclusion, we demonstrate that olanzapine can directly alter the gut microbiota and rapidly induce dysbiosis, which is significantly associated with body weight gain. This may suggest gut microbiota targets in future studies on metabolic abnormalities caused by olanzapine. IMPORTANCE Olanzapine is one of the most effective second-generation antipsychotics for stabilizing schizophrenia spectrum disorders. However, olanzapine has multiple drug-induced metabolic side effects, including weight gain. This study provides insight to the gut microbiota target in olanzapine-induced obesity. Specifically, we explored the longitudinal gut microbiota trajectories of female Sprague-Dawley rats undergoing olanzapine treatment. We showed that olanzapine treatment causes a dynamic alteration of gut microbiota diversity. Additionally, we identified three genera, Parasutterella, Enterorhabdus, and Prevotellaceae UCG-001, that may play an important role in olanzapine-induced obesity. In this case, the supply or removal of specific elements of the gut microbiota may represent a promising avenue for treatment of olanzapine-related metabolic side effects.

Abstract
Introduction: Olanzapine (OLZ) is one of the second-generation antipsychotics drugs (APDs) used to treat several psychiatric illnesses. Olanzapine treatment is often associated with many metabolic side effects in a dose dependent manner such as obesity, dyslipidemia and insulin resistance, induction of type II diabetes and acute pancreatitis in some patients. Methods: Hyperbaric Oxygen therapy (HBOT) was investigated as a tool to mitigate olanzapine metabolic side effects in rats. Thirty-six female Sprague Dawley (SD) rats were divided into 4 groups; rats on olanzapine treatment either exposed to hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOOLZ) or left without exposure (OLZ) then non-treated rats that either exposed to hyperbaric oxygen therapy or left without exposure (control). Rats received Hyperbaric Oxygen therapy for 35 days at 2.4 atmospheres absolute (ATA) for 2.5 h daily followed by intraperitoneal injection of olanzapine at 10 mg/kg or placebo. Results: Rats on either hyperbaric oxygen therapy or olanzapine had a significant loss in body weight. Olanzapine treatment showed a decrease in serum insulin level, triglyceride, highdensity lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol, and lipase level but an increase in fasting blood sugar (FBS), insulin resistance index (HOMA-IR) and amylase, while rats' exposure to hyperbaric oxygen therapy reversed these effects. The Pancreatic Langerhans islets were up-regulated in both hyperbaric oxygen therapy and olanzapine treatments but the combination (HBOOLZ) doubled these islets number. Discussion: This study advocated that hyperbaric oxygen therapy can be an alternative approach to control or reverse many metabolic disorders (MDs) associatedwith olanzapine treatment. In addition, it seems that hyperbaric oxygen therapy positively affect the pancreatic Langerhans cells activity and architecture.

Abstract
Changes in the external market environment put forward objective requirements for the formulation of organizational strategic plans, making it difficult for the organization's leaders to make the right and effective decisions quickly on their own. As a result, participative leadership, which encourages and supports employees to participate in the decision-making process of organizations, has received increasing attention in both theory and practice. We searched the literature related to participative leadership in databases such as Web of Science, EBSCO, ProQuest, and China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI). Based on this, we clarify the concept of participative leadership, propose a definition of participative leadership, summarize measurement scales for this type of leadership, and compare participative leadership with other leadership styles (empowering leadership and directive leadership). We also present a research framework for participative leadership that demonstrates its antecedents; the mechanisms for its development based on social exchange theory, conservation of resources theory, social cognitive theory; social information processing theory, and implicit leadership theory; and outcomes. Finally, we identify five potential research areas: Connotation, antecedents, outcomes, mediators and moderators, and study of participative leadership in China.

Abstract
The second generation antipsychotic drug clozapine represents the most effective pharmacotherapy for treatment-resistant psychosis. It is also associated with low rates of extrapyramidal symptoms and hyperprolactinemia compared to other antipsychotic drugs. However, clozapine tends to be underutilized in clinical practice due to a number of disabling and serious side-effects. These are characterized by a constellation of metabolic side-effects which include dysregulation of glucose, insulin, plasma lipids and body fat. Many patients treated with clozapine go on to develop metabolic syndrome at a higher rate than the general population, which predisposes them for Type 2 diabetes mellitus and cardiovascular disease. Treatments for the metabolic side-effects of clozapine vary in their efficacy. There is also a lack of knowledge about the underlying physiology of how clozapine exerts its metabolic effects in humans. In the current review, we focus on key studies which describe how clozapine affects each of the main symptoms of the metabolic syndrome, and cover some of the treatment options. The clinical data are then discussed in the context of preclinical studies that have been conducted to identify the key biological substrates involved, in order to provide a better integrated overview. Suggestions are provided about key areas for future research to better understand how clozapine causes metabolic dysregulation.

Abstract
Antipsychotic (AP) medications are associated with an increased risk for developing metabolic side effects including weight gain, dyslipidemia, hypertension, type 2 diabetes (T2D), and cardiovascular disease. Previous reviews have focused on the chronic metabolic side effects associated with AP use. However, an underappreciated aspect of APs are the rapid perturbations in glucose and lipid metabolism that occur with each dose of drug. The purpose of this narrative review is to summarize work examining the peripheral mechanisms of acute olanzapine-induced related metabolic disturbances. We also discuss recent studies that have attempted to elucidate treatment approaches to mitigate AP-induced impairments in fuel metabolism.

Abstract
While both men and women gain weight as a side effect of antipsychotic (AP) treatment, studies in mice have found only female mice are susceptible to weight gain. Therefore, to we set out to identify a strain of male mice that gain significant weight in response to APs which could better model AP-induced weight gain observed in humans. These studies determined that male Balb/c mice developed late onset olanzapine-induced weight gain. Patients often take APs for many years and thus understanding AP-mediated changes in food intake, energy expenditure and body weight regulation is particularly important.

Abstract
Antipsychotic (AP) medications are associated with an increased risk of developing metabolic side effects including weight gain, type 2 diabetes (T2D), dyslipidemia, and hypertension. In the majority of clinical studies, females on APs are noted to gain more weight, and are more likely to be diagnosed with metabolic syndrome when compared to males. However, the data is less clear when comparing sex disparities associated with other specific AP-induced metabolic risk factors. Accumulating evidence has demonstrated a role for AP-induced adipose tissue accumulation as well as whole body glucose dysregulation in male models that is independent of changes in body weight. The purpose of this narrative review is to explore the susceptibility of males and females to changes in adiposity and glucose metabolism across clinical and preclinical models of AP treatment. It is important that future research examining AP-induced metabolic side effects analyzes outcomes by sex to help clarify risk and identify the mechanisms of adverse event development to improve safe prescribing of medications.

Abstract
Schizophrenia is known to be a complex and disabling psychiatric disorder. Dopamine receptor antagonists have a significant therapeutic effect in improving the positive symptoms that are associated with the illness. Therefore, dopamine receptor antagonists are commonly used in the treatment of schizophrenia; however, they do not achieve satisfactory results in improving negative symptoms and cognitive impairment. Metformin, widely known as an antidiabetic drug, has been found to enhance spatial memory formation and improve anxiety-like behaviors in rodents. Metformin's neuroprotective effect has been well documented in several neurological disorders including Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, strokes, Huntington's disease, and seizures. In the present study, we used a rat model to explore the effect of metformin on schizophrenia-like behaviors induced by MK-801 (dizocilpine), an N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonist. We found that the pre-pulse inhibition (PPI) deficit caused by MK-801 could be alleviated by metformin. The hyperlocomotion in the open field test induced by chronic treatment of MK-801 was reversed by administration of metformin. Metformin has no effect on the baseline level of anxiety in normal naive rats, while metformin could relieve the anxiety-like behaviors in MK-801-treatment rats, though this effect is not reaching a significant level. Additionally, metformin could significantly ameliorate working memory impairments induced by MK-801. Moreover, the increased level of phosphorylation of Akt and GSK3β in the frontal cortex induced by MK-801 was normalized by metformin. In conclusion, our results demonstrate that metformin improved schizophrenia-like symptoms in rats, and is therefore a potential agent for the treatment of schizophrenia.

Visceral Fat Dysfunctions in the Rat Social Isolation Model of Psychosis. Front Pharmacol 2017; 8:787.

Abstract
Medication with neuroleptics has been associated with adipose tissue dysfunctions and, in particular, with increased visceral fat amount. However, several studies suggested that antipsychotic treatment might not be the main responsible of fat mass accumulation, as this has been also described in not treated psychotic patients. One of the most used “drug-free” rodent models of psychosis is the social isolation rearing of young adult rats, which provides a non-pharmacologic method of inducing long-term alterations reminiscent of symptoms seen in psychotic patients. Recent data highlighted a crucial role of redox imbalance in adipose tissue dysfunctions, in terms of decreased antioxidant defense and increased reactive oxygen species (ROS). Here, we investigated possible oxidative stress-related biomolecular alterations associated with visceral fat increase in 7 week isolated rats. To this purpose, we quantified total and visceral fat amount by using dual-energy X-ray (DEXA) absorptiometry. On visceral fat, we analyzed the expression of specific ROS-producer genes (Nox1, Nox4, Hmox-1), antioxidant enzymes (Prdx1 and Ucp-1) and oxidative stress-induced damage markers (Cidea, Slc2a4, and Acacb). The impact of oxidative stress on beta3-adrenergic receptors (Adrb3), at both mRNA and protein level, was also assessed. We found that 7 weeks of social isolation induced an increase in total and visceral fat, associated with a decrease in Prdx1 (mRNA and protein) as well as Ucp-1 mRNA levels and an enhanced expression of Nox1 (mRNA and protein) and Hmox-1 mRNA. No differences were detected in Nox4 mRNA levels between grouped and isolated animals. Elevations in Cidea, Slc2a4, and Acacb expression in visceral fat of isolated animals accounted for oxidative stress-related damage in this tissue, further associated with a significant increase in Adrb3 mRNA and protein. Our results provide a novel understanding of the pathological link existing among psychosocial stress-induced psychosis, adipose tissue dysfunctions and redox imbalance, opening new therapeutic perspectives for the treatment of alterations in peripheral tissues associated with this mental disorder.

Abstract
Clozapine (CLO) remains an ultimate option for patients with treatment resistant schizophrenia. However, the atypical antipsychotic is often associated with serious metabolic side effects, such as dyslipidemia. Hepatic sterol regulatory element-binding proteins (SREBPs) are central in the allosteric control of a variety of lipid biosynthetic pathways. There is emerging evidence that CLO can activate SREBP pathway and enhance downstream lipogenesis, whereas curcumin (CUR), a major active compound of Curcuma longa, contains hypolipidemic properties. Therefore, in the present study, we examined the protective effects of CUR against CLO-induced lipid disturbance and analyzed the expression of key components in hepatic lipid metabolism. Our data showed that 4-week treatment of CLO (15 mg/kg/day) markedly elevated serum lipid levels and resulted in hepatic lipid accumulation, whereas co-treatment of CUR (80 mg/kg/day) alleviated the CLO-induced dyslipidemia. We further demonstrated that CUR appears to be a novel AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) agonist, which enhanced AMPK phosphorylation and mitigated CLO-induced SREBP overexpression. Additionally, CUR also modulated the downstream SREBP-targeted genes involved in fatty acid synthesis and cholesterol metabolism, including fatty acid synthase (FAS) and HMG-CoA reductase (HMGCR). In summary, our study suggests that the suppressed AMPK activity and thereby enhanced SREBP-dependent lipid synthesis could be associated with the antipsychotic-stimulated dyslipidemia, whereas CUR may maintain lipid homeostasis by directly binding to AMPK, indicating that adjunctive use of CUR could be a promising preventive strategy for the drug-induced lipogenesis.

Chronic Olanzapine Treatment Induces Disorders of Plasma Fatty Acid Profile in Balb/c Mice: A Potential Mechanism for Olanzapine-Induced Insulin Resistance. PLoS One 2016; 11:e0167930. [PMID: 27973621 PMCID: PMC5156395 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0167930] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/17/2016] [Accepted: 11/22/2016] [Indexed: 11/22/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Atypical antipsychotics such as olanzapine cause metabolic side effects leading to obesity and insulin resistance. The underlying mechanisms remain elusive. In this study we investigated the effects of chronic treatment of olanzapine on the fatty acid composition of plasma in mice. Methods Twenty 8-week female Balb/c mice were randomly assigned to two groups: the OLA group and the control group. After treatment with olanzapine (10 mg/kg/day) or vehicle intraperitoneally for 8 weeks, fasting glucose, insulin levels and oral glucose tolerance test were determined. Effects on plasma fatty acid profile and plasma indices of D5 desaturase, D6 desaturase and SCD1 activity were also investigated. Results Chronic administration of olanzapine significantly elevated fasting glucose and insulin levels, impaired glucose tolerance, but did not increase body weight. Total saturated fatty acids and n-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids were significantly increased and total monounsaturated fatty acids were significantly decreased, while total n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids showed no prominent changes. Chronic olanzapine treatment significantly up-regulated D6 desaturase activity while down-regulating D5 desaturase activity. Palmitic acid (C16:0), dihomo-γ-linolenic acid (C20:3n-6) and D6 desaturase were associated with an increase probability of insulin resistance, whereas nervonic acid (C24:1) and SCD1 were significantly associated with a lower insulin resistance probability. Conclusions All results indicated that such drug-induced effects on fatty acid profile in plasma were relevant for the metabolic adverse effects associated with olanzapine and possibly other antipsychotics. Further studies are needed to investigate geneticand other mechanisms to explain how plasma fatty acids regulate glucose metabolism and affect the risk of insulin resistance.

Atypical antipsychotics and effects on feeding: from mice to men. Psychopharmacology (Berl) 2016; 233:2629-53.

Abstract
RATIONALE So-called atypical antipsychotics (AAPs) are associated with varying levels of weight gain and associated metabolic disturbances, which in patients with serious mental illness (SMI) have been linked to non-compliance and poor functional outcomes. Mechanisms underlying AAP-induced metabolic abnormalities are only partially understood. Antipsychotic-induced weight gain may occur as a result of increases in food intake and/or changes in feeding. OBJECTIVE In this review, we examine the available human and preclinical literature addressing AAP-related changes in feeding behavior, to determine whether changes in appetite and perturbations in regulation of food intake could be contributing factors to antipsychotic-induced weight gain. RESULTS In general, human studies point to disruption by AAPs of feeding behaviors and food consumption. In rodents, increases in cumulative food intake are mainly observed in females; however, changes in feeding microstructure or motivational aspects of food intake appear to occur independent of sex. CONCLUSIONS The findings from this review indicate that the varying levels of AAP-related weight gain reflect changes in both appetite and feeding behaviors, which differ by type of AAP. However, inconsistencies exist among the studies (both human and rodent) that may reflect considerable differences in study design and methodology. Future studies examining underlying mechanisms of antipsychotic-induced weight gain are recommended in order to develop strategies addressing the serious metabolic side effect of AAPs.

Abstract
RATIONALE Recently, we showed that 2-bromoterguride acted as a dopamine D2 receptor partial agonist, a serotonin 5-HT2A and α2C-adrenergic receptor antagonist, and exhibited antidopaminergic efficacy in amphetamine-induced locomotion (AIL) in rats without inducing catalepsy. OBJECTIVE To extend our knowledge on the antipsychotic effects of 2-bromoterguride, we used convergent preclinical animal models and tests; i.e., conditioned avoidance response (CAR), predictive of antipsychotic-like effects; Fos protein expression, a molecular marker for (atypical) antipsychotic activity; wet dog shake behavior, a test for the in vivo effects of drugs acting on central 5-HT2A receptors; and investigated metabolic changes as a common side effect of atypical antipsychotic drugs (APDs). RESULTS Acute treatment with 2-bromoterguride (0.1 and 0.3 mg/kg) decreased the CAR at 30, 90, and 270 min post-injection in rats without inducing escape failures at any time. Fos protein expression, as shown by Western blotting, was enhanced by 2-bromoterguride in the nucleus accumbens (NAc), the dorsolateral striatum (dStr), and the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC). (±)-2,5-Dimethoxy-4-iodoamphetamine (DOI)-induced wet dog shakes in rats were reduced by 2-bromoterguride. Chronic treatment with 2-bromoterguride did not affect metabolic parameters such as body weight development and body fat composition as well as behavioral parameters such as food intake and locomotor activity. CONCLUSIONS Our data suggest that 2-bromoterguride is a promising candidate in the treatment of schizophrenia due to its atypical antipsychotic-like activity and its inability to induce weight gain.

Abstract
Olanzapine, an atypical antipsychotic, is widely prescribed for the treatment of schizophrenia and bipolar disorder despite causing undesirable metabolic side effects. A variety of mechanisms and brain sites have been proposed as contributors to the side effects; however, the role of the dorsal motor nucleus of the vagus nerve (DMV), which plays a crucial role in the regulation of subdiaphragmatic organs and thus governs energy and glucose homeostasis, is largely unknown. Identifying the effect of olanzapine on the excitability of DMV neurons in both sexes is thus crucial to understanding possible underlying mechanisms. Whole cell patch-clamp electrophysiological recordings were conducted in stomach- and liver-related DMV neurons identified with retrograde viral tracers and in random DMV neurons. The effect of olanzapine on the neuronal excitability of DMV neurons both in male and female mice was established. Our data demonstrate that olanzapine hyperpolarizes the DMV neurons in both sexes and this effect is reversible. The hyperpolarization is associated with decreased firing rate and input resistance. Olanzapine also decreases the excitability of a subset of stomach- and liver-related DMV neurons. Our study demonstrates that olanzapine has a powerful effect on DMV neurons in both sexes, indicating its ability to reduce vagal output to the subdiaphragmatic organs, which likely contributes to the metabolic side effects observed in both humans and experimental models. These findings suggest that the metabolic side effects of olanzapine may partially originate in the DMV.

Abstract
Rats are used as animal models in the study of antipsychotic-induced metabolic adverse effects, with oral drug administration yielding hyperphagia, weight gain and, in some cases, lipogenic effects. However, the rapid half-life of these drugs in rats, in combination with development of drug tolerance after a few weeks of treatment, has limited the validity of the model. In order to prevent fluctuating drug serum concentrations seen with daily repeated administrations, we injected female rats with a single intramuscular dose of long-acting olanzapine formulation. The olanzapine depot injection yielded plasma olanzapine concentrations in the range of those achieved in patients, and induced changes in metabolic parameters similar to those previously observed with oral administration, including increased food intake, weight gain and elevated plasma triglycerides. Moreover, the sensitivity to olanzapine was maintained beyond the 2-3 wk of weight gain observed with oral administration. In a separate olanzapine depot experiment, we aimed to clarify the role of hypothalamic AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) in olanzapine-induced weight gain, which has been subject to debate. Adenovirus-mediated inhibition of AMPK was performed in the arcuate (ARC) or the ventromedial hypothalamic (VMH) nuclei in female rats, with subsequent injection of olanzapine depot solution. Inhibition of AMPK in the ARC, but not in the VMH, attenuated the weight-inducing effect of olanzapine, suggesting an important role for ARC-specific AMPK activation in mediating the orexigenic potential of olanzapine. Taken together, olanzapine depot formulation provides an improved mode of drug administration, preventing fluctuating plasma concentrations, reducing handling stress and opening up possibilities to perform complex mechanistic studies.
