Abstract
The aim of the present research was to explore the mechanisms underlying the role of dopamine in the regulation of insulin secretion in beta cells. The effect of dopamine on insulin secretion was investigated on INS 832/13 cell line upon glucose and other secretagogues stimulation. Results show that dopamine significantly inhibits insulin secretion stimulated by both glucose and other secretagogues, while it has no effect on the basal secretion. This effect requires the presence of dopamine during incubation with the various secretagogues. Both electron microscopy and immunohistochemistry indicate that in beta cells the D2 dopamine receptor is localized within the insulin granules. Blocking dopamine entry into the insulin granules by inhibiting the VMAT2 transporter with tetrabenazine causes a significant increase in ROS production. Our results confirm that dopamine plays an important role in the regulation of insulin secretion by pancreatic beta cells through a regulated and precise compartmentalization mechanisms.

Abstract
Olanzapine is a second-generation antipsychotic that disrupts metabolism and is associated with an increased risk of type 2 diabetes. The hypothalamus is a key region in the control of whole-body metabolic homeostasis. The objective of the current study was to determine how acute peripheral olanzapine administration affects transcription and serine/threonine kinase activity in the hypothalamus. Hypothalamus samples from rats were collected following the pancreatic euglycemic clamp, thereby allowing us to study endpoints under steady state conditions for plasma glucose and insulin. Olanzapine stimulated pathways associated with inflammation, but diminished pathways associated with the capacity to combat endoplasmic reticulum stress and G protein-coupled receptor activity. These pathways represent potential targets to reduce the incidence of type 2 diabetes in patients taking antipsychotics.

Abstract
The antipsychotic drug clozapine demonstrates superior efficacy in treatment-resistant schizophrenia, but its intracellular mode of action is not completely understood. Here, we analysed the effects of clozapine (2.5-20 µM) on metabolic fluxes, cell respiration, and intracellular ATP in human HL60 cells. Some results were confirmed in leukocytes of clozapine-treated patients. Neuroreceptor inhibition under clozapine reduced Akt activation with decreased glucose uptake, thereby inducing ER stress and the unfolded protein response (UPR). Metabolic profiling by liquid-chromatography/mass-spectrometry revealed downregulation of glycolysis and the pentose phosphate pathway, thereby saving glucose to keep the electron transport chain working. Mitochondrial respiration was dampened by upregulation of the F0F1-ATPase inhibitory factor 1 (IF1) leading to 30-40% lower oxygen consumption in HL60 cells. Blocking IF1 expression by cotreatment with epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) increased apoptosis of HL60 cells. Upregulation of the mitochondrial citrate carrier shifted excess citrate to the cytosol for use in lipogenesis and for storage as triacylglycerol in lipid droplets (LDs). Accordingly, clozapine-treated HL60 cells and leukocytes from clozapine-treated patients contain more LDs than untreated cells. Since mitochondrial disturbances are described in the pathophysiology of schizophrenia, clozapine-induced mitohormesis is an excellent way to escape energy deficits and improve cell survival.

Abstract
Delirium recognition during pediatric critical illness may result in the prescription of antipsychotic medication. These medications have unclear efficacy and safety. We sought to describe antipsychotic medication use in pediatric intensive care units (PICUs) contributing to a U.S. national database. This study is an analysis of the Pediatric Health Information System Database between 2008 and 2018, including children admitted to a PICU aged 0 to 18 years, without prior psychiatric diagnoses. Antipsychotics were given in 16,465 (2.3%) of 706,635 PICU admissions at 30 hospitals. Risperidone (39.6%), quetiapine (22.1%), and haloperidol (20.8%) were the most commonly used medications. Median duration of prescription was 4 days (interquartile range: 2-11 days) for atypical antipsychotics, and haloperidol was used a median of 1 day (1-3 days). Trend analysis showed quetiapine use increased over the study period, whereas use of haloperidol and chlorpromazine (typical antipsychotics) decreased ( p < 0.001). Compared with no antipsychotic administration, use of antipsychotics was associated with comorbidities (81 vs. 65%), mechanical ventilation (57 vs. 36%), longer PICU stay (6 vs. 3 days), and higher mortality (5.7 vs. 2.8%) in univariate analyses. In the multivariable model including demographic and clinical factors, antipsychotic prescription was associated with mortality (odds ratio [OR] = 1.09, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.02-1.18). Use of atypical antipsychotics increased over the 10-year period, possibly reflecting increased comfort with their use in pediatric patients. Antipsychotics were more common in patients with comorbidities, mechanical ventilation, and longer PICU stay, and associated with higher mortality in an adjusted model which warrants further study.

Abstract
Dopamine (DA) D2-like receptors in both the central nervous system (CNS) and the periphery are key modulators of metabolism. Moreover, disruption of D2-like receptor signaling is implicated in dysglycemia. Yet, the respective metabolic contributions of CNS versus peripheral D2-like receptors including D2 (D2R) and D3 (D3R) receptors remain poorly understood. To address this, we developed new pharmacological tools, D2-like receptor agonists with diminished and delayed blood-brain barrier capability, to selectively manipulate D2R/D3R signaling in the periphery. We designated bromocriptine methiodide (BrMeI), a quaternary methiodide analogue of D2/3R agonist and diabetes drug bromocriptine, as our lead compound based on preservation of D2R/D3R binding and functional efficacy. We then used BrMeI and unmodified bromocriptine to dissect relative contributions of CNS versus peripheral D2R/D3R signaling in treating dysglycemia. Systemic administration of bromocriptine, with unrestricted access to CNS and peripheral targets, significantly improved both insulin sensitivity and glucose tolerance in obese, dysglycemic mice in vivo. In contrast, metabolic improvements were attenuated when access to bromocriptine was restricted either to the CNS through intracerebroventricular administration or delayed access to the CNS via BrMeI. Our findings demonstrate that the coordinated actions of both CNS and peripheral D2-like receptors are required for correcting dysglycemia. Ultimately, the development of a first-generation of drugs designed to selectively target the periphery provides a blueprint for dissecting mechanisms of central versus peripheral DA signaling and paves the way for novel strategies to treat dysglycemia.

Abstract
AIM Widely used second-generation antipsychotics are associated with adverse metabolic effects, contributing to increased cardiovascular mortality. To develop strategies to prevent or treat adverse metabolic effects, preclinical models have a clear role in uncovering underlying molecular mechanisms. However, with few exceptions, preclinical studies have been performed in healthy animals, neglecting the contribution of dysmetabolic features inherent to psychotic disorders. METHODS In this study, methylazoxymethanol acetate (MAM) was prenatally administered to pregnant Sprague-Dawley rats at gestational day 17 to induce a well-validated neurodevelopmental model of schizophrenia mimicking its assumed pathogenesis with persistent phenotype. Against this background, the dysmetabolic effects of acute treatment with olanzapine and haloperidol were examined in female rats. RESULTS Prenatally MAM-exposed animals exhibited several metabolic features, including lipid disturbances. Half of the MAM rats exposed to olanzapine had pronounced serum lipid profile alteration compared to non-MAM controls, interpreted as a reflection of a delicate MAM-induced metabolic balance disrupted by olanzapine. In accordance with the drugs' clinical metabolic profiles, olanzapine-associated dysmetabolic effects were more pronounced than haloperidol-associated dysmetabolic effects in non-MAM rats and rats exposed to MAM. CONCLUSION Our results demonstrate metabolic vulnerability in female prenatally MAM-exposed rats, indicating that findings from healthy animals likely provide an underestimated impression of metabolic dysfunction associated with antipsychotics. In the context of metabolic disturbances, neurodevelopmental models possess a relevant background, and the search for adequate animal models should receive more attention within the field of experimental psychopharmacology.

Abstract
Olanzapine is a second-generation antipsychotic (AP) used in the management of schizophrenia. Although effective at reducing psychoses, APs cause rapid hyperglycemia, insulin resistance, and dyslipidemia, an effect mediated in part by glucagon. We tested if amylin, a hormone that reduces glucagon, or the amylin receptor agonist pramlintide would protect against acute olanzapine-induced impairments in glucose and lipid homeostasis alone or in combination with other glucose-lowering agents such as liraglutide. We demonstrated that pramlintide lowered olanzapine-induced increases in glucagon:insulin ratio with a trend to protect against excursions in blood glucose. There was an additive effect of pramlintide and liraglutide in protecting against olanzapine-induced hyperglycemia, which was mirrored by reductions in glucagon and attenuated markers of dyslipidemia. Our findings provide evidence that pramlintide, although moderately protective against some aspects of olanzapine-induced metabolic dysfunction, can be used to enhance the protective effects of other interventions against acute olanzapine-induced metabolic dysfunction.

Abstract
Antipsychotic (AP)-naive first-episode psychosis (FEP) patients display early dysglycemia, including insulin resistance and prediabetes. Metabolic dysregulation may therefore be intrinsic to psychosis spectrum disorders (PSDs), independent of the metabolic effects of APs. However, the potential biological pathways that overlap between PSDs and dysglycemic states remain to be identified. Using meta-analytic approaches of transcriptomic datasets, we investigated whether AP-naive FEP patients share overlapping gene expression signatures with non-psychiatrically ill early dysglycemia individuals. We meta-analyzed peripheral transcriptomic datasets of AP-naive FEP patients and non-psychiatrically ill early dysglycemia subjects to identify common gene expression signatures. Common signatures underwent pathway enrichment analysis and were then used to identify potential new pharmacological compounds via Integrative Library of Integrated Network-Based Cellular Signatures (iLINCS). Our search results yielded 5 AP-naive FEP studies and 4 early dysglycemia studies which met inclusion criteria. We discovered that AP-naive FEP and non-psychiatrically ill subjects exhibiting early dysglycemia shared 221 common signatures, which were enriched for pathways related to endoplasmic reticulum stress and abnormal brain energetics. Nine FDA-approved drugs were identified as potential drug treatments, of which the antidiabetic metformin, the first-line treatment for type 2 diabetes, has evidence to attenuate metabolic dysfunction in PSDs. Taken together, our findings support shared gene expression changes and biological pathways associating PSDs with dysglycemic disorders. These data suggest that the pathobiology of PSDs overlaps and potentially contributes to dysglycemia. Finally, we find that metformin may be a potential treatment for early metabolic dysfunction intrinsic to PSDs.

Abstract
Schizophrenia is a complex psychotic disorder with co-occurring conditions, including insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes (T2D). It is well established that T2D and its precursors (i.e., insulin resistance) are more prevalent in patients with schizophrenia who are treated with antipsychotics, as well as in antipsychotic-naïve patients experiencing their first episode of psychosis, compared with the general population. However, the mechanism(s) underlying the increased susceptibility, shared genetics, and possible cause-effect relationship between schizophrenia and T2D remain largely unknown. The objective of this narrative review was to synthesize important studies, including Mendelian randomization (MR) analyses that have integrated genome-wide association studies (GWAS), as well as results from in vitro models, in vivo models, and observational studies of patients with schizophrenia. Both GWAS and MR studies have found that schizophrenia and T2D/insulin resistance share genetic risk factors, and this may mediate a connection between peripheral or brain insulin resistance and T2D with cognition impairment and an increased risk of developing prediabetes and T2D in schizophrenia. Moreover, accumulating evidence supports a causal role for insulin resistance in schizophrenia and emphasizes the importance of a genetic basis for susceptibility to T2D in patients with schizophrenia before they receive psychotic treatment. The present findings and observations may have clinical implications for the development of better strategies to treat patients with schizophrenia, with both pharmacological (i.e., samidorphan, empagliflozin) and/or nonpharmacological (i.e., lifestyle changes) approaches. Additionally, this review may benefit the design of future studies by physicians and clinical investigators.

Dopamine in the nucleus accumbens shell controls systemic glucose metabolism via the lateral hypothalamus and hepatic vagal innervation in rodents. Metabolism 2024; 150:155696. [PMID: 37804881 DOI: 10.1016/j.metabol.2023.155696] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/20/2023] [Revised: 09/06/2023] [Accepted: 10/04/2023] [Indexed: 10/09/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Growing evidence demonstrates the role of the striatal dopamine system in the regulation of glucose metabolism. Treatment with dopamine antagonists is associated with insulin resistance and hyperglycemia, while dopamine agonists are used in treatment of type 2 diabetes. The mechanism underlying striatal dopamine effects in glucose metabolism, however is not fully understood. Here, we provide mechanistic insights into the role of nucleus accumbens shell (sNAc) dopaminergic signaling in systemic glucose metabolism. METHODS Endogenous glucose production (EGP), blood glucose and mRNA expression in the lateral hypothalamic area (LHA) in male Wistar rats were measured following infusion of vanoxerine (VNX, dopamine reuptake inhibitor) in the sNAc. Thereafter, we analyzed projections from sNAc Drd1-expressing neurons to LHA using D1-Cre male Long-Evans rats, Cre-dependent viral tracers and fluorescence immunohistochemistry. Brain slice electrophysiology in adult mice was used to study spontaneous excitatory postsynaptic currents of sNAc Drd1-expressing neurons following VNX application. Finally, we assessed whether GABAergic LHA activity and hepatic vagal innervation were required for the effect of sNAc-VNX on glucose metabolism by combining infusion of sNAc-VNX with LHA-bicuculline, performing vagal recordings and combining infusion of sNAc-VNX with hepatic vagal denervation. RESULTS VNX infusion in the sNAc strongly decreased endogenous glucose production, prevented glucose increases over time, reduced Slc17A6 and Hcrt mRNA in LHA, and increased vagal activity. Furthermore, sNAc Drd1-expressing neurons increased spontaneous firing following VNX application, and viral tracing of sNAc Drd1-expressing neurons revealed direct projections to LHA with on average 67 % of orexin cells directly targeted by sNAc Drd1-expressing neurons. Importantly, the sNAc-VNX-induced effect on glucose metabolism was dependent on GABAergic signaling in the LHA and on intact hepatic vagal innervation. CONCLUSIONS We show that sNAc dopaminergic signaling modulates hepatic glucose metabolism through GABAergic inputs to glutamatergic LHA cells and hepatic vagal innervation. This demonstrates that striatal control of glucose metabolism involves a dopaminergic sNAc-LHA-liver axis and provides a potential explanation for the effects of dopamine agonists and antagonists on glucose metabolism.

J Psychiatr Res 2023; 168:149-156.

Abstract
Antipsychotic medications increase the risk of abnormal glucose metabolism. However, in clinical practice, it is difficult to predict this risk because it is affected by medication-related and background factors. This study aimed to identify the risk factors for abnormal glucose metabolism during antipsychotic treatment. We conducted a multicenter, prospective, cohort study in patients with schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, or bipolar disorder. Of these patients, those with prediabetes or possible diabetes were excluded. Finally, 706 patients were included in the analysis. The hazard ratio (HR) for each factor was calculated for events of progression to hyperglycemia using time-dependent Cox regression analysis stratified according to facility type and adjusted for available background and drug-related factors. Treatments with olanzapine (HR = 2.06, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.05-4.05), clozapine (HR = 4.25, 95% CI = 1.56-11.60), and chlorpromazine (HR = 4.48, 95% CI = 1.21-16.57), overweight and obesity (HR = 1.57, 95% CI = 1.02-2.41), and hypertriglyceridemia (HR = 1.72, 95% CI = 1.02-2.88) were associated with a significantly higher occurrence of hyperglycemic progression. The number and daily dose of antipsychotics were not associated with their occurrence. Our study demonstrated that more careful monitoring is necessary during olanzapine, clozapine, and chlorpromazine treatment because of the higher occurrence of abnormalities in glucose metabolism. Furthermore, patients with obesity or hypertriglyceridemia warrant monitoring for the occurrence of abnormal glucose metabolism, regardless of the type of antipsychotic medication.

Abstract
Atypical antipsychotics (AAPs) are commonly prescribed drugs in the treatment of schizophrenia, bipolar disorder and other mental diseases with psychotic traits. Although the use of AAPs is associated with beneficial effects in these patients, they are also associated with undesired metabolic side effects, including metabolic syndrome (MetS). MeS is defined by the presence of metabolic abnormalities such as large waist circumference, dyslipidemia, fasting hyperglycemia and elevated blood pressure, which predispose to type 2 diabetes (T2D) and cardiovascular disease. In this review, the molecular and cellular mechanisms involved in these undesired metabolic abnormalities induced by AAPs are described. These mechanisms are complex as AAPs have multiple cellular targets which significantly affect the activities of several hormones and neuromodulators. Additionally, AAPs affect all the relevant metabolic organs, namely the liver, pancreas, adipose tissue, skeletal muscle and intestine, and the central and peripheral nervous system as well. A better understanding of the molecular targets linking AAPs with MetS and of the mechanisms responsible for clinically different side effects of distinct AAPs is needed. This knowledge will help in the development of novel AAPs with less adverse effects as well as of adjuvant therapies to patients receiving AAPs.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Weight gain is a disconcerting issue experienced by patients treated with antipsychotics (APs). This review summarizes current knowledge on the prevalence, etiology, and risk factors for antipsychotic-induced weight gain (AIWG), and evidence for interventions, including special considerations. RECENT FINDINGS Predisposing risk factors for AIWG include lack of prior AP exposure, sex, and age. AP dose and duration of exposure are additional treatment-related factors that may contribute to this issue. Among current approaches to target AIWG, metformin has the most evidence to support its use, and this is increasingly reflected in clinical guidelines. While lifestyle approaches are recommended, cost-effectiveness and scalability represent limitations. More research is needed to identify newer treatment options and inform clinical recommendations for AIWG. Concerns around scope of practice in psychiatry to address AIWG and related comorbidities will require enhanced training opportunities and interdisciplinary collaborations, as well as updated position statements/practice guidelines emphasizing prevention.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The most common causes of death in schizophrenia are cardiovascular disorders, which are closely related to metabolic syndrome/obesity. To better understand the development of metabolic alterations early in the course of illness, we quantified daily medication exposure in the first days of the first hospitalization for psychosis and related it to changes in weight and metabolic markers. STUDY DESIGN We recruited participants with first episode psychosis (FEP, N = 173) during their first psychiatric hospitalization and compared them to controls (N = 204). We prospectively collected weight, body mass index, metabolic markers, and exact daily medication exposure at admission and during hospitalization. STUDY RESULTS Individuals with FEP gained on average 0.97 ± 2.26 BMI points or 3.46 ± 7.81 kg of weight after an average of 44.6 days of their first inpatient treatment. Greater antipsychotic exposure was associated with greater BMI increase, but only in people with normal/low baseline BMI. Additional predictors of weight gain included type of medication and duration of treatment. Medication exposure was not directly related to metabolic markers, but higher BMI was associated with higher TGC, TSH, and lower HDL. Following inpatient treatment, participants with FEP had significantly higher BMI, TGC, prolactin, and lower fT4, HDL than controls. CONCLUSION During their first admission, people with FEP, especially those with normal/low baseline BMI, showed a rapid and clinically significant weight increase, which was associated with exposure to antipsychotics, and with metabolic changes consistent with metabolic syndrome. These findings emphasize weight monitoring in FEP and suggest a greater need for caution when prescribing metabolically problematic antipsychotics to people with lower BMI.

Abstract
CONTEXT Insulin resistance is associated with multiple complex diseases; however, precise measures of insulin resistance are invasive, expensive, and time-consuming. OBJECTIVE Develop estimation models for measures of insulin resistance, including insulin sensitivity index (SI) and homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) from metabolomics data. DESIGN Insulin Resistance Atherosclerosis Family Study (IRASFS). SETTING Community based. PARTICIPANTS Mexican Americans (MA) and African Americans (AA). MAIN OUTCOME Estimation models for measures of insulin resistance, i.e. SI and HOMA-IR. RESULTS Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator (LASSO) and Elastic Net regression were used to build insulin resistance estimation models from 1274 metabolites combined with clinical data, e.g. age, sex, body mass index (BMI). Metabolite data were transformed using three approaches, i.e. inverse normal transformation, standardization, and Box Cox transformation. The analysis was performed in one MA recruitment site (San Luis Valley, Colorado (SLV); N = 450) and tested in another MA recruitment site (San Antonio, Texas (SA); N = 473). In addition, the two MA recruitment sites were combined and estimation models tested in the AA recruitment sample (Los Angeles, California; N = 495). Estimated and empiric SI were correlated in the SA (r2 = 0.77) and AA (r2 = 0.74) testing datasets. Further, estimated and empiric SI were consistently associated with BMI, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL), and triglycerides. We applied similar approaches to estimate HOMA-IR with similar results. CONCLUSIONS We have developed a method for estimating insulin resistance with metabolomics data that has the potential for application to a wide range of biomedical studies and conditions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND HYPOTHESIS Antipsychotics (APs), the cornerstone of schizophrenia treatment, confer a relatively high risk of constipation. However, the mechanisms underpinning AP-induced constipation are poorly understood. Thus, we hypothesized that (1) schizophrenia patients with AP-induced constipation have distinct metabolic patterns; (2) there is more than one mechanism at play in producing this adverse drug effect; and (3) AP-associated changes in the gut microbiome are related to the altered metabolic profiles. STUDY DESIGN Eighty-eight schizophrenia patients, including 44 with constipation (C) and 44 matched patients without constipation (NC), were enrolled in this study. Constipation was diagnosed by Rome IV criteria for constipation and colonic transit time using radiopaque markers (ROMs) while severity was evaluated with the Bristol Stool Form Scale (BSS) and Constipation Assessment Scale (CAS). Fasting blood samples were drawn from all participants and were subjected to non-targeted liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) metabolomic analysis. STUDY RESULTS Eleven metabolites were significantly altered in AP-induced constipation which primarily disturbed sphingolipid metabolism, choline metabolism, and sphingolipid signaling pathway (P value < .05, FDR < 0.05). In the C group, changes in the gut bacteria showed a certain degree of correlation with 2 of the significantly altered serum metabolites and were associated with alterations in choline metabolism. CONCLUSIONS Our findings indicated that there were disturbances in distinct metabolic pathways that were associated with AP-induced constipation. In addition, this study presents evidence of a link between alterations in the gut microbiome and host metabolism which provides additional mechanistic insights on AP-induced constipation.

Abstract
Sex differences have been noted in schizophrenia (SCZ) and diabetes mellitus (DM); however, the effect of sex on SCZ patients with DM remains unknown. We aimed to investigate sex differences in the prevalence, demographic and clinical correlates of DM in Chinese patients with chronic SCZ. A total of 988 Han Chinese SCZ patients (male/female: 638/350) were recruited from two psychiatric hospitals in China. We used the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) to evaluate the psychopathological symptoms of the patients. In addition, serum glucose and lipid levels were assayed. The prevalence of DM in female patients (57/350, 16.29%) was higher than that in male patients (79/638, 12.38%). Binary logistic regression analyses confirmed that the prevalence of DM in female patients was higher than that in male patients (P < 0.001, OR = 4.62, 95% CI = 2.11-10.11). Moreover, female patients had significantly higher positive symptoms than male patients (P = 0.003, OR = 1.08, 95% CI = 1.03-1.14). Further, higher body mass index (BMI) and higher triglyceride (TG) were significantly associated with DM in men (both P < 0.05). Decreased high density lipoprotein (HDL) was significantly associated with DM in both male and female patients (both P < 0.01). Comorbid DM is more common in female SCZ patients, and there are sex-specific correlates of DM in SCZ.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE In contrast to what is seen clinically, male mice are resistant to antipsychotic-induced obesity. This is problematic as preclinical studies examining mechanisms of antipsychotic-induced metabolic dysfunction might be relevant to only half the population. This study sought to determine whether housing mice at thermoneutrality and under conditions of preexisting obesity, steps that have not been previously considered, would uncover a greater obesogenic effect of the antipsychotic olanzapine (OLZ). METHODS C57BL6/J mice were fed a low- or high-fat diet (HFD) for 4 weeks and then switched to a control HFD or an HFD supplemented with OLZ for 6 weeks. RESULTS Irrespective of obesity, OLZ treatment attenuated weight gain and increased energy expenditure in male mice. In females, OLZ increased food intake and potentiated weight gain in mice with preexisting obesity. CONCLUSIONS Despite taking steps to increase clinical translatability, this study did not unmask an obesogenic effect of OLZ in male mice. Interestingly, prior studies in female mice could have been underestimating the metabolic consequences of OLZ by not considering the importance of preexisting obesity. Uncovering the mechanisms conferring resistance to weight gain in males may provide clues for approaches to counter the metabolic side effects of antipsychotics clinically.

Abstract
Olanzapine is a second-generation antipsychotic (SGA) used in the treatment of schizophrenia and several on- and off-label conditions. While effective in reducing psychoses, acute olanzapine treatment causes rapid hyperglycemia, insulin resistance, and dyslipidemia and these perturbations are linked to an increased risk of developing cardiometabolic disease. Pharmacological agonists of the glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP1) receptor have been shown to offset weight-gain associated with chronic SGA administration and mitigate the acute metabolic side effects of SGAs. The purpose of this study was to determine if increasing endogenous GLP1 is sufficient to protect against acute olanzapine-induced impairments in glucose and lipid homeostasis. Male C57BL/6J mice were treated with olanzapine, in the absence or presence of an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), and a combination of compounds to increase endogenous GLP1. These include the non-nutritive sweetener allulose which acts to induce GLP1 secretion but not other incretins, the DPPiv inhibitor sitagliptin which prevents degradation of active GLP1, and an SSTR5 antagonist which relieves inhibition on GLP1 secretion. We hypothesized that this cocktail of agents would increase circulating GLP1 to supraphysiological concentrations and would protect against olanzapine-induced perturbations in glucose and lipid homeostasis. We found that 'triple treatment' increased both active and total GLP1 and protected against olanzapine-induced perturbations in lipid and glucose metabolism under glucose stimulated conditions and this was paralleled by an attenuation in the olanzapine induced increase in the glucagon:insulin ratio. Our findings provide evidence that pharmacological approaches to increase endogenous GLP1 could be a useful adjunct approach to reduce acute olanzapine-induced perturbations in lipid and glucose metabolism.

Abstract
In recent times, advances in the field of metabolomics have shed greater light on the role of metabolic disturbances in neuropsychiatric conditions. The following review explores the role of ketone bodies and ketosis in both the diagnosis and treatment of three major psychiatric disorders: major depressive disorder, anxiety disorders, and schizophrenia. Distinction is made between the potential therapeutic effects of the ketogenic diet and exogenous ketone preparations, as exogenous ketones in particular offer a standardized, reproducible manner for inducing ketosis. Compelling associations between symptoms of mental distress and dysregulation in central nervous system ketone metabolism have been demonstrated in preclinical studies with putative neuroprotective effects of ketone bodies being elucidated, including effects on inflammasomes and the promotion of neurogenesis in the central nervous system. Despite emerging pre-clinical data, clinical research on ketone body effectiveness as a treatment option for psychiatric disorders remains lacking. This gap in understanding warrants further investigating, especially considering that safe and acceptable ways of inducing ketosis are readily available.

Abstract
Antipsychotics (APs) are the cornerstone of treatment for schizophrenia (SCZ) but are unfortunately associated with serious metabolic adverse effects including weight gain and type 2 diabetes. The pathophysiology of AP-induced metabolic dysfunction is largely undetermined. Brain insulin resistance has been posited to be at the cross-roads of many cognitive and metabolic disorders, and disruption of central insulin action has emerged as a possible explanatory mechanism underlying AP induced metabolic dysfunction. Previous studies suggest that change in neuroimaging-based parameters with intranasal insulin administration can be leveraged to investigate brain insulin resistance. In this proof-of-concept study, we will utilize neural signatures of insulin action in the brain to examine if APs disrupt brain insulin signaling. It is hypothesized that: 1) intranasal insulin (INI), but not intranasal placebo (INP), will change cerebral blood flow and resting state connectivity, as well as increase glutamate levels in the striatum and dorsolateral prefrontal cortex; 2) oral olanzapine (OLA), but not oral placebo (PL), will inhibit the effect of INI on these parameters. Thirty-two healthy volunteers will undergo a single blind, cross-over design, wherein all participants receive the following four treatment combinations, 2-6 weeks apart, in a random sequence: INP + PL, INP + OLA, INI + PL, and INI + OLA. Participants will undergo an MRI-based assay of brain insulin resistance 15 minutes after administering 160 IU INI or INP. The scanning protocol includes resting and task-based functional MRI, arterial spin labelling, and proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy. Demonstrating that OLA can acutely induce brain insulin resistance is clinically relevant to metabolic health in SCZ. Evidence of brain insulin resistance induced by acute AP dosing can inform the early use of adjunctive insulin sensitizers for the treatment of metabolic comorbidities associated with AP treatment in severe mental illness.

Antipsychotics impair regulation of glucose metabolism by central glucose. Mol Psychiatry 2022; 27:4741-4753.

Abstract
Hypothalamic detection of elevated circulating glucose triggers suppression of endogenous glucose production (EGP) to maintain glucose homeostasis. Antipsychotics alleviate symptoms associated with schizophrenia but also increase the risk for impaired glucose metabolism. In the current study, we examined whether two acutely administered antipsychotics from different drug classes, haloperidol (first generation antipsychotic) and olanzapine (second generation antipsychotic), affect the ability of intracerebroventricular (ICV) glucose infusion approximating postprandial levels to suppress EGP. The experimental protocol consisted of a pancreatic euglycemic clamp, followed by kinomic and RNA-seq analyses of hypothalamic samples to determine changes in serine/threonine kinase activity and gene expression, respectively. Both antipsychotics inhibited ICV glucose-mediated increases in glucose infusion rate during the clamp, a measure of whole-body glucose metabolism. Similarly, olanzapine and haloperidol blocked central glucose-induced suppression of EGP. ICV glucose stimulated the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) pathway, phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) pathway, and kinases capable of activating KATP channels in the hypothalamus. These effects were inhibited by both antipsychotics. In conclusion, olanzapine and haloperidol impair central glucose sensing. Although results of hypothalamic analyses in our study do not prove causality, they are novel and provide the basis for a multitude of future studies.

Abstract
Second-generation antipsychotics (SGAs), in particular, olanzapine and clozapine, have been associated with the development of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D) and metabolic syndrome in individuals with schizophrenia. In this context, beta cell dysfunction is a plausible mechanism by which SGAs cause T2D. Herein, we analyzed the direct effects of olanzapine, a commonly prescribed SGA with diabetogenic properties, on the INS-1 (821/13) beta cell line and isolated pancreatic islets. Treatment of INS-1 beta cells with non-toxic concentrations of olanzapine (3–6 μM) during 4 h activated endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress-mediated signaling by increasing PERK/eIF2α phosphorylation, IRE-1 phosphorylation and XBP-1 splicing. Moreover, glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS) was inhibited when olanzapine was present for 16 h. The insulin secretory function of INS-1 cells was restored by inhibiting olanzapine-induced ER stress with tauroursodeoxycholic acid (TUDCA). Similar effects of olanzapine with or without TUDCA on ER-stress-mediated signaling and GSIS were found in pancreatic islets from female mice. Our results indicate that early activation of ER stress in pancreatic beta cells is a potential mechanism behind the alterations in glucose homeostasis induced by olanzapine.

Abstract
KEY POINTS Antipsychotic medications cause rapid and robust increases in blood glucose Cotreatment approaches to offset these harmful metabolic side effects have not been identified We demonstrate that fasting or the consumption or a short-term ketogenic diet, but not treatment with βHB or oral ketone esters, protects against acute antipsychotic induced hyperglycemia Protective effects of fasting and ketogenic diets were paralleled by reductions in serum glucagon, but not improvements in whole body insulin action ABSTRACT: Antipsychotic (AP) medications, such as olanzapine (OLZ), are used in the treatment of schizophrenia and a growing number of "off-label" conditions. A single dose of OLZ causes robust increases in blood glucose within minutes following treatment. The purpose of the current study was to investigate if interventions which increase circulating ketone bodies (fasting, βHB, ketone esters or a ketogenic diet) would be sufficient to protect against acute metabolic side effects of OLZ. We demonstrate that fasting or the short-term consumption of a ketogenic diet (KD) protects against OLZ-induced hyperglycemia, independent of alterations in whole body insulin action, and in parallel with a blunted rise in serum glucagon. Interestingly, the effects of fasting and ketogenic diets were not recapitulated by acutely increasing circulating concentrations of ketone bodies through treatment with βHB or oral ketone esters, approaches which increase ketone bodies to physiological or supra-physiological levels respectively. Collectively our findings demonstrate that fasting and the short-term consumption of a KD can protect against acute AP-induced perturbations in glucose homeostasis, whereas manipulations which acutely increase circulating ketone bodies do not elicit the same beneficial effects.

Abstract
A substantial and diverse body of literature suggests that the pathophysiology of schizophrenia is related to deficits of bioenergetic function. While antipsychotics are an effective therapy for the management of positive psychotic symptoms, they are not efficacious for the complete schizophrenia symptom profile, such as the negative and cognitive symptoms. In this review, we discuss the relationship between dysfunction of various metabolic pathways across different brain regions in relation to schizophrenia. We contend that several bioenergetic subprocesses are affected across the brain and such deficits are a core feature of the illness. We provide an overview of central perturbations of insulin signaling, glycolysis, pentose-phosphate pathway, tricarboxylic acid cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation in schizophrenia. Importantly, we discuss pharmacologic and nonpharmacologic interventions that target these pathways and how such interventions may be exploited to improve the symptoms of schizophrenia.

Abstract
There have been concerns that antipsychotics increase the incidence of hyperglycemic progression. Many factors have been suggested to contribute to the risk of antipsychotic-induced hyperglycemic progression, including the type, daily dose, and number of antipsychotics; however, few studies have examined these relationships. This study aimed to examine the affect of antipsychotic treatment-associated factors on hyperglycemic progression, after adjustment for the affect of background factors suggested to be associated with hyperglycemic progression. This was a nationwide, multicenter, prospective cohort study examining the incidence of hyperglycemic progression during a 12 mo period following the initiation of newly prescribed antipsychotic medication. Demographic data, medication history, and blood test values were collected from 631 study participants with normal blood glucose levels at baseline for 12 mo. The primary endpoint (incidence of hyperglycemic progression) was defined as progression from normal to prediabetic or probable diabetic status, and was evaluated based on the Japanese monitoring guidance in patients with schizophrenia. To further examine the affect of antipsychotics on glucose metabolism over time, we examined changes in HbA1c levels 3, 6, and 12 mo after the initiation of treatment with each antipsychotic. We found that treatment with zotepine and clozapine was associated with a significantly high incidence of hyperglycemic progression. Furthermore, changes in HbA1c levels 6 mo after the initiation of zotepine treatment were significantly higher than those following blonanserin and haloperidol treatments. In contrast, there was no significant difference in the change in total cholesterol, triglycerides, HDL cholesterol, and BMI during the same period. Moreover, the "daily dose" and "number" of antipsychotics did not show an association with the incidence of hyperglycemic progression. However, in a post hoc analysis in which the antipsychotics were divided into two groups according to the strength of blockade of H1, M1, M3, and 5-HT2C receptors, the incidence of hyperglycemic progression was higher in the medium- and high-daily dose groups than in the low-daily dose group in the antipsychotic group with strong blockade of these receptors. Our study indicated that the type of antipsychotic had a greater affect on the incidence of hyperglycemic progression than the daily dose of antipsychotics or their number. Among these, zotepine was most likely to increase the incidence of hyperglycemic progression, suggesting the need for caution when these antipsychotics are prescribed.

[PMID: 35242029 PMCID: PMC8886888 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2022.765905] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/06/2021] [Accepted: 01/17/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
The second-generation antipsychotic drugs are widely used in the field of psychiatry, for an expanding number of different conditions. While their clinical efficacy remains indispensable, many of the drugs can cause severe metabolic side-effects, resulting in an increased risk of developing cardiometabolic disorders. The physiological basis of these side-effects remains an ongoing area of investigation. In the present study, we examined the potential role of peripheral catecholamines in antipsychotic-induced glucose intolerance. Adult female rats were acutely treated with either the first-generation antipsychotic drug haloperidol (0.1, 0.5 or 1 mg/kg) or the second-generation drugs risperidone (0.25, 1.0 or 2.5 mg/kg), olanzapine (1.5, 7.5 or 15 mg/kg) or clozapine (2, 10 or 20 mg/kg) or vehicle. Fasting glucose levels were measured and then animals were subjected to the intraperitoneal glucose tolerance test. Levels of peripheral norepinephrine, epinephrine and dopamine were concurrently measured in the same animals 75, 105 and 135 min after drug treatment. All antipsychotics caused glucose intolerance, with strongest effects by clozapine > olanzapine > risperidone > haloperidol. Plasma catecholamines were also increased by drug treatment, with greatest effects for norepinephrine and epinephrine caused by clozapine > risperidone > olanzapine > haloperidol. Importantly, there were strong and statistically significant associations between norepinephrine/epinephrine levels and glucose intolerance for all drugs. These findings confirm that increases in peripheral catecholamines co-occur in animals that exhibit antipsychotic-induced glucose intolerance, and these effects are strongly associated with each other, providing further evidence for elevated catecholamines as a substrate for antipsychotic metabolic side-effects.

Abstract
Obesity is often accompanied by major depressive disorder (MDD), and vice versa. Latest research findings suggest the body mass index (BMI) to play a role in antidepressant treatment response in general. Our study aims to examine whether adiposity-related parameters such as BMI, glucose homeostasis, or serum lipids are associated with remission to electroconvulsive therapy (ECT). A pilot study (PS, n = 9) and a glucose study (GS, n = 29) were conducted. Blood was withdrawn directly before and 15 min (GS) as well as 1 h (PS) after the first ECT and directly before the last one (usually an ECT series comprised up to twelve sessions). BMI was associated with remission in the PS (remitters: M = 28, SD = 2.5; non-remitters: M = 22, SD = 2.08; t(7) = 3.325, p < 0.001, d = 0.24) but not in the GS or when pooled together. Glucose and insulin levels increased significantly after a single ECT session (GS: glucose: F (2,25.66) = 39.04, p < 0.001; insulin: PS: F (2,83) = 25.8, p < 0.001; GS: F (2,25.87) = 3.97, p < 0.05) but no chronic effect was detectable. Serum lipids were neither significantly altered after a single ECT session nor during a whole course of ECT. There was no difference between remitters and non-remitters in insulin, glucose, or serum lipid levels. Our study is lacking the differentiation between abdominal and peripheral fat distribution, and the sample size is small. Unexpectedly, BMI, glucose homeostasis, and lipid serum levels did not differ in patients remitting during ECT. In contrast to recently published studies, we cannot confirm the hypothesis that BMI may have an impact on ECT response.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE SNAP-25 is one of the key proteins involved in formation of soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment protein receptor (SNARE) complexes that are at the core of hormonal secretion and synaptic transmission. Altered expression or function of SNAP-25 can contribute to the development of neuropsychiatric and metabolic disease. A dominant negative (DN) I67T missense mutation in the b-isoform of SNAP-25 (DN-SNAP25mut) mice leads to abnormal interactions within the SNARE complex and impaired exocytotic vesicle recycling, yet the significance of this mutation to any association between the central nervous system and metabolic homeostasis is unknown. METHODS Here we explored aspects of metabolism, steroid hormone production and neurobehavior of DN-SNAP25mut mice. RESULTS DN-SNAP25mut mice displayed enhanced insulin function through increased Akt phosphorylation, alongside increased adrenal and gonadal hormone production. In addition, increased anxiety behavior and beigeing of white adipose tissue with increased energy expenditure were observed in mutants. CONCLUSIONS Our results show that SNAP25 plays an important role in bridging central neurological systems with peripheral metabolic homeostasis, and provide potential insights between metabolic disease and neuropsychiatric disorders in humans.

Abstract
Schizophrenia (SCZ) is a severe mental disorder with high morbidity and lifetime disability rates. Patients with SCZ have a higher risk of developing metabolic comorbidities such as obesity and diabetes mellitus, leading to increased mortality. Antipsychotics (APs), which are the mainstay in the treatment of SCZ, increase the risk of these metabolic perturbations. Despite extensive research, the mechanism underlying SCZ pathophysiology and associated metabolic comorbidities remains unclear. In recent years, gut microbiota (GMB) has been regarded as a 'chamber of secrets', particularly in the context of severe mental illnesses such as SCZ, depression, and bipolar disorder. In this scoping review, we aimed to investigate the underlying role of GMB in the pathophysiology of SCZ and metabolic alterations associated with APs. Furthermore, we also explored the therapeutic benefits of prebiotic and probiotic formulations in managing SCZ and AP-induced metabolic alterations. A systematic literature search yielded 46 studies from both preclinical and clinical settings that met inclusion criteria for qualitative synthesis. Preliminary evidence from preclinical and clinical studies indicates that GMB composition changes are associated with SCZ pathogenesis and AP-induced metabolic perturbations. Fecal microbiota transplantation from SCZ patients to mice has been shown to induce SCZ-like behavioral phenotypes, further supporting the plausible role of GMB in SCZ pathogenesis. This scoping review recapitulates the preclinical and clinical evidence suggesting the role of GMB in SCZ symptomatology and metabolic adverse effects associated with APs. Moreover, this scoping review also discusses the therapeutic potentials of prebiotic/probiotic formulations in improving SCZ symptoms and attenuating metabolic alterations related to APs.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Although a relationship between schizophrenia (SCZ), antipsychotic (AP) medication, and metabolic dysregulation is now well established, the effect of adiposity is less well understood. By synthesizing findings from imaging techniques that measure adiposity, our systematic review and meta-analysis (PROSPERO CRD42020192977) aims to determine the adiposity-related effects of illness and treatment in this patient population. METHODS We searched MEDLINE, EMBASE, PsychINFO and Scopus for all relevant case-control and prospective longitudinal studies from inception until February 2021. Measures of adiposity including percent body fat (%BF), subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT), and visceral adipose tissue (VAT) were analyzed as primary outcomes. RESULTS Our search identified 29 articles that used imaging methods to quantify adiposity among patients with SCZ spectrum disorders. Analyses revealed that patients have greater %BF (mean difference (MD) = 3.09%; 95% CI: 0.75-5.44), SAT (MD = 24.29 cm2 ; 95% CI: 2.97-45.61) and VAT (MD = 33.73 cm2 , 95% CI: 4.19-63.27) compared to healthy controls. AP treatment was found to increase SAT (MD = 31.98 cm2 ; 95% CI: 11.33-52.64) and VAT (MD = 16.30 cm2 ; 95% CI: 8.17-24.44) with no effect on %BF. However, change in %BF was higher for AP-free/AP-naïve patients compared to treated patients. CONCLUSION Our findings indicate that patients with SCZ spectrum disorders have greater adiposity than healthy controls, which is increased by AP treatment. Young, AP-naïve patients may be particularly susceptible to this effect. Future studies should explore the effect of specific APs on adiposity and its relation to overall metabolic health.

Abstract
Schizophrenia (SCZ) is a psychiatric disorder characterized by a wide range of positive, negative and cognitive symptoms, along with an increased risk of metabolic syndrome and cardiovascular disease that contribute to a 15-20-year reduced life expectancy. Autonomic dysfunction, in the form of increased sympathetic activity and decreased parasympathetic activity, is postulated to be implicated in SCZ and its treatment. The aim of this narrative review is to view SCZ through an autonomic lens and synthesize the evidence relating autonomic dysfunction to different domains of SCZ. Using various methods of assessing autonomic activity, autonomic dysfunction was found to be associated with multiple aspects of SCZ pathophysiology, including symptom severity, cognitive impairment, and the development of cardiometabolic comorbidities, such as metabolic syndrome and high BMI. The strongest association of low heart rate variability was noted among patients on antipsychotic treatment with high-affinity muscarinic antagonism (i.e., clozapine, olanzapine and quetiapine). The review will also suggest ways in which studying autonomic dysfunction can help reduce morbidity and mortality associated with SCZ and its treatment.

Abstract
Microglial cells are resident macrophages in the brain that have been implicated in the pathophysiology of schizophrenia. There is a lack of studies covering the effects of antipsychotics on microglial cells. The current literature points to a possible anti-inflammatory action without clear mechanisms of action. The aim of this study is to characterize the effects of haloperidol, risperidone and aripiprazole on BV-2 microglial cells in in vitro conditions. We have used immunofluorescence and flow cytometry to analyze the classical pro and anti-inflammatory markers, while a real-time metabolic assay (Seahorse) was used to assess metabolic function. We analyzed the expression of p70S6K to evaluate the mTOR pathway activity with Western blot. In this study, we demonstrate the varying effects of haloperidol, risperidone and aripiprazole administration in BV-2 microglial cells. All three tested antipsychotics were successful in reducing the pro-inflammatory action of microglial cells, although only aripiprazole increased the expression of anti-inflammatory markers. Most significant differences in the possible mechanisms of action were seen in the real-time metabolic assays and in the mTORC1 signaling pathway activity, with aripiprazole being the only antipsychotic to reduce the mTORC1 activity. Our results shed some new light on the effects of haloperidol, risperidone and aripiprazole action in microglial cells, and reveal a novel possible mechanism of action for aripiprazole.

Metformin for early comorbid glucose dysregulation and schizophrenia spectrum disorders: a pilot double-blind randomized clinical trial. Transl Psychiatry 2021; 11:219.

Abstract
Patients with schizophrenia have exceedingly high rates of metabolic comorbidity including type 2 diabetes and lose 15-20 years of life due to cardiovascular diseases, with early accrual of cardiometabolic disease. In this study, thirty overweight or obese (Body Mass Index (BMI) > 25) participants under 40 years old with schizophrenia spectrum disorders and early comorbid prediabetes or type 2 diabetes receiving antipsychotic medications were randomized, in a double-blind fashion, to metformin 1500 mg/day or placebo (2:1 ratio; n = 21 metformin and n = 9 placebo) for 4 months. The primary outcome measures were improvements in glucose homeostasis (HbA1c, fasting glucose) and insulin resistance (Matsuda index-derived from oral glucose tolerance tests and homeostatic model of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR)). Secondary outcome measures included changes in weight, MRI measures of fat mass and distribution, symptom severity, cognition, and hippocampal volume. Twenty-two patients (n = 14 metformin; n = 8 placebo) completed the trial. The metformin group had a significant decrease over time in the HOMA-IR (p = 0.043) and fasting blood glucose (p = 0.007) vs. placebo. There were no differences between treatment groups in the Matsuda index, HbA1c, which could suggest liver-specific effects of metformin. There were no between group differences in other secondary outcome measures, while weight loss in the metformin arm correlated significantly with decreases in subcutaneous, but not visceral or hepatic adipose tissue. Our results show that metformin improved dysglycemia and insulin sensitivity, independent of weight loss, in a young population with prediabetes/diabetes and psychosis spectrum illness, that is at extremely high risk of early cardiovascular mortality. Trial Registration: This protocol was registered with clinicaltrials.gov (NCT02167620).

Abstract
Atypical antipsychotics (AAPs) are commonly prescribed medications to treat schizophrenia, bipolar disorders and other psychotic disorders. However, they might cause metabolic syndrome (MetS) in terms of weight gain, dyslipidemia, type 2 diabetes (T2D), and high blood pressure, which are responsible for reduced life expectancy and poor adherence. Importantly, there is clear evidence that early metabolic disturbances can precede weight gain, even if the latter still remains the hallmark of AAPs use. In fact, AAPs interfere profoundly with glucose and lipid homeostasis acting mostly on hypothalamus, liver, pancreatic β-cells, adipose tissue, and skeletal muscle. Their actions on hypothalamic centers via dopamine, serotonin, acetylcholine, and histamine receptors affect neuropeptides and 5'AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) activity, thus producing a supraphysiological sympathetic outflow augmenting levels of glucagon and hepatic glucose production. In addition, altered insulin secretion, dyslipidemia, fat deposition in the liver and adipose tissues, and insulin resistance become aggravating factors for MetS. In clinical practice, among AAPs, olanzapine and clozapine are associated with the highest risk of MetS, whereas quetiapine, risperidone, asenapine and amisulpride cause moderate alterations. The new AAPs such as ziprasidone, lurasidone and the partial agonist aripiprazole seem more tolerable on the metabolic profile. However, these aspects must be considered together with the differences among AAPs in terms of their efficacy, where clozapine still remains the most effective. Intriguingly, there seems to be a correlation between AAP's higher clinical efficacy and increase risk of metabolic alterations. Finally, a multidisciplinary approach combining psychoeducation and therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) is proposed as a first-line strategy to avoid the MetS. In addition, pharmacological treatments are discussed as well.

Abstract
Olanzapine (OLZ) is used in the treatment of schizophrenia and a growing number of "off-label" conditions. Although effective in reducing psychoses, OLZ causes rapid impairments in glucose and lipid homeostasis. The purpose of this study was to investigate if voluntary physical activity via wheel running (VWR) would protect against the acute metabolic side effects of OLZ. Male C57BL/6J mice remained sedentary or were provided with running wheels overnight, before treatment with OLZ either at the beginning of the light cycle, or 7 or 24 h following the cessation of VWR. Prior VWR protected against OLZ-induced hyperglycemia immediately and 7 h following a bout of overnight wheel running. Protection against, hyperglycemia immediately following VWR was associated with increased insulin tolerance and an attenuated OLZ-induced increase in the serum glucagon:insulin ratio. The protective effect of VWR against OLZ-induced increases in hyperglycemia and glucagon:insulin ratio was maintained in high-fat fed, and AMPK β1-deficient mice, models which display a potentiated OLZ-induced increase in blood glucose. Repeated OLZ treatment did not impair VWR performance and protection against the acute effects of OLZ on blood glucose was present after 1 wk of daily OLZ treatment in mice given access to running wheels. In contrast to the effects on glucose metabolism, VWR, for the most part, did not impact OLZ-induced perturbations in lipolysis, liver triglyceride accumulation, or whole body substrate oxidation. Collectively, our findings demonstrate the efficacy of voluntary physical activity as an approach to protect against OLZ-induced impairments in glucose metabolism.NEW & NOTEWORTHY The antipsychotic medication olanzapine causes rapid and large increases in blood glucose. We demonstrate that a prior bout of voluntary overnight wheel running can protect against this harmful side effect and is likely mediated by reductions in olanzapine-induced increases in the circulating glucagon to insulin ratio. This study highlights the powerful effects of voluntary activity in conditions of treatment with antipsychotic medications.

Schizophr Res 2021; 228:112-117.

Abstract
Antipsychotic use is associated with an increased risk of type 2 diabetes. Recent work suggests antipsychotics can induce insulin resistance immediately and independently of weight gain, and that this may occur via the central nervous system (CNS). We have previously shown that the highly effective and widely prescribed antipsychotic, olanzapine inhibits CNS insulin-mediated suppression of hepatic glucose production, but the mechanisms remain unknown. The ATP-sensitive potassium (KATP) channel is a key metabolic sensor downstream of hypothalamic insulin signalling, involved in the maintenance of glucose homeostasis. Thus, the possibility arises that olanzapine inhibits central KATP channel activation to disrupt glucose metabolism. We replicate that intracerebroventricular (ICV) administration of the KATP channel activator, diazoxide, suppresses hepatic glucose production and additionally demonstrate stimulation of peripheral glucose utilization. We report that olanzapine inhibits the effects of central KATP channel activation resulting in perturbation of whole body insulin sensitivity, specifically via inhibition of glucose utilization, while leaving central KATP channel-mediated suppression of glucose production intact. Perturbation of KATP channel action in the CNS could represent a novel mechanism of antipsychotic-induced diabetes.

Abstract
Blood glucose and insulin homeostasis is disrupted during the progression of type 2 diabetes. Insulin levels and action are regulated by both peripheral and central responses that involve the intestine and microbiome. The intestine and its microbiota process nutrients and generate molecules that influence blood glucose and insulin. Peripheral insulin regulation is regulated by gut-segment-dependent nutrient sensing and microbial factors such as short-chain fatty acids and bile acids that engage G-protein-coupled receptors. Innate immune sensing of gut-derived bacterial cell wall components and lipopolysaccharides also alter insulin homeostasis. These bacterial metabolites and postbiotics influence insulin secretion and insulin clearance in part by altering endocrine responses such as glucagon-like peptide-1. Gut-derived bacterial factors can promote inflammation and insulin resistance, but other postbiotics can be insulin sensitizers. In parallel, activation of small intestinal sirtuin 1 increases insulin sensitivity by reversing high fat-induced hypothalamic insulin resistance through a gut-brain neuronal axis, whereas high fat-feeding alters small intestinal microbiome and increases taurochenodeoxycholic acid in the plasma and the dorsal vagal complex to induce insulin resistance. In summary, emerging evidence indicates that intestinal molecular signaling involving nutrient sensing and the host-microbe symbiosis alters insulin homeostasis and action. Gut-derived host endocrine and paracrine factors as well as microbial metabolites act on the liver, pancreas, and the brain, and in parallel on the gut-brain neuronal axis. Understanding common nodes of peripheral and central insulin homeostasis and action may reveal new ways to target the intestinal host-microbe relationship in obesity, metabolic disease, and type 2 diabetes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Schizophrenia (SCZ) is a severe psychiatric disease affected by genetic factors and environmental contributors, and premorbid abnormality of glucose metabolism is one of the SCZ characteristics supposed to contribute to the disease's pathological process. Transmembrane protein 108 (Tmem108) is a susceptible gene associated with multiple psychiatric diseases, including SCZ. Moreover, Tmem108 mutant mice exhibit SCZ-like behaviors in the measurement of sensorimotor gating. However, it is unknown whether Tmem108 regulates glucose metabolism homeostasis while it involves SCZ pathophysiological process. RESULTS In this research, we found that Tmem108 mutant mice exhibited glucose intolerance, insulin resistance, and disturbed metabolic homeostasis. Food and oxygen consumption decreased, and urine production increased, accompanied by weak fatigue resistance in the mutant mice. Simultaneously, the glucose metabolic pathway was enhanced, and lipid metabolism decreased in the mutant mice, consistent with the elevated respiratory exchange ratio (RER). Furthermore, metformin attenuated plasma glucose levels and improved sensorimotor gating in Tmem108 mutant mice. CONCLUSIONS Hyperglycemia occurs more often in SCZ patients than in control, implying that these two diseases share common biological mechanisms, here we demonstrate that the Tmem108 mutant may represent such a comorbid mechanism.

Abstract
Patients with severe mental illness have increased mortality, often linked to cardio-metabolic disease. Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) incidence is higher in patients with schizophrenia and is exacerbated with antipsychotic treatment. NAFLD is associated with obesity and insulin resistance, both of which are induced by several antipsychotic medications. NAFLD is considered an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease, the leading cause of death for patients with severe mental illness. Although the clinical literature clearly defines increased risk of NAFLD with antipsychotic therapy, the underlying mechanisms are not understood. Given the complexity of the disorder as well as the complex pharmacology associated with atypical antipsychotic (AA) medications, we chose to use a proteomic approach in healthy mice treated with a low dose of risperidone (RIS) or olanzapine (OLAN) for 28 days to determine effects on development of NAFLD and to identify pathways impacted by AA medications, while removing confounding intrinsic effects of mental illness. Both AA drugs caused development of steatosis in comparison with vehicle controls (p < 0.01) and affected multiple pathways relating to energy metabolism, NAFLD, and immune function. AA-associated alteration in autonomic function appears to be a unifying theme in the regulation of hepatic pathology.

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
Converging lines of evidence suggest that activation of microglia (innate immune cells in the central nervous system [CNS]) is present in a subset of patients with schizophrenia. The extent to which antipsychotic drug treatment contributes to or combats this effect remains unclear. To address this question, we reviewed the literature for evidence that antipsychotic exposure influences brain microglia as indexed by in vivo neuroimaging and post-mortem studies in patients with schizophrenia and experimental animal models. We found no clear evidence from clinical studies for an effect of antipsychotics on either translocator protein (TSPO) radioligand binding (an in vivo neuroimaging measure of putative gliosis) or markers of brain microglia in post-mortem studies. In experimental animals, where drug and illness effects may be differentiated, we also found no clear evidence for consistent effects of antipsychotic drugs on TSPO radioligand binding. By contrast, we found evidence that chronic antipsychotic exposure may influence central microglia density and morphology. However, these effects were dependent on the dose and duration of drug exposure and whether an immune stimulus was present or not. In the latter case, antipsychotics were generally reported to suppress expression of inflammatory cytokines and inducible inflammatory enzymes such as cyclooxygenase and microglia activation. No clear conclusions could be drawn with regard to any effect of antipsychotics on brain microglia from current clinical data. There is evidence to suggest that antipsychotic drugs influence brain microglia in experimental animals, including possible anti-inflammatory actions. However, we lack detailed information on how these drugs influence brain microglia function at the molecular level. The clinical relevance of the animal data with regard to beneficial treatment effects and detrimental side effects of antipsychotic drugs also remains unknown, and further studies are warranted.

Abstract
Managing diabetes requires dealing with diet, medications, and self-monitoring, besides other pressures of daily living. It, therefore, requires collaboration among individuals with diabetes, their families, and significant others including the social milieu in which they reside. Psychological stress plays critical role in the cause and course of diabetes, particularly in mastering various self-management skills, which are essential for adequate management of diabetes. It is possible to measure and to resolve such stressors. Besides the patient and the family, the built environment which the person occupies must be conducive for healthy living. This is a key component in providing an appropriate physical and psychosocial environment. Lacunae in any of the built environmental parameters compromise social and psychological well-being. Psychiatric conditions are also common in diabetes. Both depression and distress are bi-directionally associated with diabetes. The presence of one condition increases the risk of developing the other. In addition, medications used for the treatment of psychiatric conditions have adverse effects on body weight and insulin sensitivity. One must carefully weigh the risk and benefit of the drug class with potential adverse effects. Therefore, identification and management of psychological and psyciatric aspects in subjects with diabetes is an integral and critical component in treating subjects with diabetes.

Abstract
Although long-studied in the central nervous system, there is increasing evidence that dopamine (DA) has important roles in the periphery including in metabolic regulation. Insulin-secreting pancreatic β-cells express the machinery for DA synthesis and catabolism, as well as all five DA receptors. In these cells, DA functions as a negative regulator of glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS), which is mediated by DA D2-like receptors including D2 (D2R) and D3 (D3R) receptors. However, the fundamental mechanisms of DA synthesis, storage, release, and signaling in pancreatic β-cells and their functional relevance in vivo remain poorly understood. Here, we assessed the roles of the DA precursor L-DOPA in β-cell DA synthesis and release in conjunction with the signaling mechanisms underlying DA's inhibition of GSIS. Our results show that the uptake of L-DOPA is essential for establishing intracellular DA stores in β-cells. Glucose stimulation significantly enhances L-DOPA uptake, leading to increased DA release and GSIS reduction in an autocrine/paracrine manner. Furthermore, D2R and D3R act in combination to mediate dopaminergic inhibition of GSIS. Transgenic knockout mice in which β-cell D2R or D3R expression is eliminated exhibit diminished DA secretion during glucose stimulation, suggesting a new mechanism where D2-like receptors modify DA release to modulate GSIS. Lastly, β-cell-selective D2R knockout mice exhibit marked postprandial hyperinsulinemia in vivo. These results reveal that peripheral D2R and D3R receptors play important roles in metabolism through their inhibitory effects on GSIS. This opens the possibility that blockade of peripheral D2-like receptors by drugs including antipsychotic medications may significantly contribute to the metabolic disturbances observed clinically.

Abstract
Weight gain and metabolic syndrome are common side effects of second-generation antipsychotics and carry significant health consequences both in childhood and into adulthood. This review highlights evidence-based, non-pharmacologic interventions to assist in the management of these side effects. Such intervention categories include dietary, physical activity, sleep, stress management, and nutritional supplementation. Interventions with the highest quality evidence include increasing the consumption of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains, increasing physical activity, improving sleep, and fish oil supplementation. We suggest that clinicians work with patients on managing metabolic side effects in a patient-centered way, incorporating principles of motivational interviewing, to reduce the risk of metabolic syndrome.

Abstract
Antipsychotic drugs represent the most effective treatment for chronic psychotic disorders. The newer second generation drugs offer the advantage of fewer neurological side-effects compared to prior drugs, but many cause serious metabolic side-effects. The underlying physiology of these side-effects is not well-understood, but evidence exists to indicate that the sympathetic nervous system may play an important role. In order to examine this possibility further, we treated separate groups of adult female rats acutely with either the first generation antipsychotic drug haloperidol (0.1 or 1 mg/kg) or the second generation drugs risperidone (0.25 or 2.5 mg/kg), clozapine (2 or 20 mg/kg), olanzapine (3 or 15 mg/kg) or vehicle by intraperitoneal injection. Blood samples were collected prior to drug and then 30, 60, 120, and 180 mins after treatment. Plasma samples were assayed by HPLC-ED for levels of norepinephrine, epinephrine, and dopamine. Results confirmed that all antipsychotics increased peripheral catecholamines, although this was drug and dose dependent. For norepinephrine, haloperidol caused the smallest maximum increase (+158%], followed by risperidone (+793%), olanzapine (+952%) and clozapine (+1,684%). A similar pattern was observed for increases in epinephrine levels by haloperidol (+143%], olanzapine (+529%), risperidone (+617%) then clozapine (+806%). Dopamine levels increased moderately with olanzapine [+174%], risperidone [+271%], and clozapine [+430%]. Interestingly, levels of the catecholamines did not correlate strongly with each other prior to treatment at baseline, but were increasingly correlated after treatment as time proceeded. The results demonstrate antipsychotics can potently regulate peripheral catecholamines, in a manner consistent with their metabolic liability.

Abstract
Atypical antipsychotics (AAP) or second-generation antipsychotics are the clinical option for schizophrenia treatment during acute psychoses, but they are also indicated for maintenance during lifetime, even though they are being used for other psychiatric conditions in clinical practice such as affective disorders and autism spectrum disorder, among others. These drugs are differentiated from typical antipsychotics based on their clinical profile and are a better choice because they cause fewer side effects regarding extrapyramidal symptoms (EPS). Even though they provide clear therapeutic benefits, AAP induce peripheral effects that trigger phenotypic, functional, and systemic changes outside the Central Nervous System (CNS). Metabolic disease is frequently associated with AAP and significantly impacts the patient's quality of life. However, other peripheral changes of clinical relevance are present during AAP treatment, such as alterations in the immune and endocrine systems as well as the intestinal microbiome. These less studied alterations also have a significant impact in the patient's health status. This manuscript aims to revise the peripheral immunological, endocrine, and intestinal microbiome changes induced by AAP consumption recommended in the clinical guidelines for schizophrenia and other psychiatric disorders.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Atypical antipsychotics, also known as second-generation antipsychotics, are commonly prescribed as treatment for psychotic disorders in adults, as well as in children and adolescents with behavioral problems. However, in many cases, second-generation antipsychotics have unwanted side effects, such as weight gain, potentially further increasing risk for morbidities including obesity, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease. While various mechanisms for this weight gain have been proposed, including effects on metabolic hormone signaling, recent evidence points to the importance of the gut microbiome in this process. The microbial communities residing within the gut are affected by second-generation antipsychotics and can confer weight gain. MAIN TEXT This review summarizes recent findings and presents data linking second-generation antipsychotics, gut microbiota alterations and weight gain. The review focuses on children and adolescent populations, which have not previously received much attention, but are of great interest because they may be most vulnerable to gut microbiome changes and may carry long-term metabolic effects into adulthood. CONCLUSIONS We present correlations between second-generation antipsychotics, gut microbiota alterations and weight gain, and suggest some mechanisms that may link them. A better understanding of the underlying mechanisms may lead to the design of improved treatments for psychotic disorders with fewer harmful side effects.

Abstract
Cognitive impairment is a core symptom domain of schizophrenia. The effect of antipsychotics, the cornerstone of treatment in schizophrenia, on this domain is not fully clear. There is some evidence suggesting that antipsychotics may partially improve cognitive function, and that this improvement may vary depending on the specific cognitive domain. However, this research is confounded by various factors, such as age, duration/stage of illness, medication adherence, and extrapyramidal side effects that complicate the relationship between antipsychotics and cognitive improvement. Furthermore, antipsychotics-particularly the second generation, or "atypical" antipsychotics-can induce serious metabolic side effects, such as obesity, dyslipidemia and type 2 diabetes, illnesses which themselves have been linked to impairments in cognition. Thus, the inter-relationships between cognition and metabolic side effects are complex, and this review aims to examine them in the context of schizophrenia and antipsychotic treatment. The review also speculates on potential mechanisms underlying cognitive functioning and metabolic risk in schizophrenia. We conclude that the available literature examining the inter-section of antipsychotics, cognition, and metabolic effects in schizophrenia is sparse, but suggests a relationship between metabolic comorbidity and worse cognitive function in patients with schizophrenia. Further research is required to determine if there is a causal connection between the well-recognized metabolic adverse effects of antipsychotics and cognitive deficits over the course of the illness of schizophrenia, as well as, to determine underlying mechanisms. In addition, findings from this review highlight the importance of monitoring metabolic disturbances in parallel with cognition, as well as, the importance of interventions to minimize metabolic abnormalities for both physical and cognitive health.
