Interleukin 1 receptor antagonist and soluble tumor necrosis factor receptor 1 are associated with general severity and psychotic symptoms in schizophrenia and bipolar disorder
Open accessAbstract
BACKGROUND: Previous studies suggest elevated inflammation in schizophrenia and bipolar disorder, with increased activity of the Interleukin 1 (IL-1), interleukin 6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha, von Willebrand factor (vWf) and osteoprotegerin (OPG). It is unclear how immune activation is involved in the psychopathology. We investigated if elevated inflammation was associated with disease severity (trait) or current symptom level (state), comparing psychotic with general characteristics. METHODS: Plasma levels of sTNF receptor 1 (sTNF-R1), IL-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1Ra), IL-6, vWf and OPG were measured with ELISA techniques in 322 patients with schizophrenia spectrum and bipolar disorder. Current symptom level (state) was measured with Global Assessment of Functioning (GAF) and Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS). Disease severity (trait) was measured with premorbid adjustment scale (PAS), age at onset, number of psychotic episodes and number and length of hospitalizations. RESULTS: After controlling for confounders, IL-1Ra and TNF-R1 were independently associated with GAF, and significantly correlated with PANSS negative and positive, respectively. In addition, Il-1Ra was associated with PAS, and sTNF-R1 with number of hospitalizations and psychotic episodes. VWf was significantly correlated with psychotic episodes, OPG with hospitalizations and IL-6 with history of psychosis. Linear regression analysis showed that GAF remained associated with sTNF-R1 and IL-1Ra with PANSS, after controlling for the other clinical measures. CONCLUSIONS: This supports that inflammatory markers, particularly IL-1Ra and sTNF-R1 are associated with both general disease severity and psychotic features. This supports a role of immune activation in the core pathological mechanisms of severe mental disorders.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
