- Alcohol use disorder (AUD) remains a significant global health challenge, necessitating the exploration of novel pharmacotherapeutics. Our recent study observed that intranasal (IN) administration of arginine vasopressin (AVP) decreases voluntary consumption of sweetened ethanol (EtOH) in mice, a promising development, given that IN AVP does not affect the blood pressure or stress responses associated with systemic AVP administration. To characterize AVP's potential to regulate alcohol drinking, here we investigated the effects of IN AVP on voluntary intake of unsweetened ethanol (EtOH) in single- and group-housed mice, the involvement of AVP and Oxytocin (Oxt) receptors, and the potential neural substrates of these effects. - Source: PubMed
Nipper Michelle AZweig Jonathan AJohnson Michael CRyabinin Andrey E - Much attention has been devoted to exploring the similarities between schizophrenia and autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Autistic traits in schizophrenia have recently been assessed using the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale for Schizophrenia Autism Severity Scale (PAUSS). Although studies on arginine-vasopressin (AVP) systems have focused on the etiology of ASD, there are no reports regarding AVP systems and autistic traits in schizophrenia. This study aimed to assess autistic traits in schizophrenia using the PAUSS and examine their associations with the PAUSS and AVP-related biological measures. This is a cross-sectional study. We recruited patients with schizophrenia (n = 80) and healthy controls (HCs; n = 27). Patients with schizophrenia were classified as having either an autistic phenotype schizophrenia (AU) or a non-autistic phenotype (NAU). All patients with schizophrenia underwent clinical assessments focusing on symptom severity, autistic traits, neurocognition, and social cognition. HCs were examined for neurocognition and social cognition. We also evaluated AVP-related biomarkers, including serum AVP levels, single-nucleotide polymorphisms, and promoter-region microsatellites. The AU group showed worse symptom severity and social cognition than the NAU group. The T allele of rs28632197 in the AVP receptor (AVPR)1b was associated with more severe autistic traits in patients with schizophrenia, while the short allele of RS1 in AVPR1a was associated with less severe autistic traits. Our results suggest that autistic traits in schizophrenia are linked to more severe symptoms and poorer social cognition and that AVP system dysfunction may contribute to their etiology. Clinicians should carefully evaluate autistic traits. - Source: PubMed

Yamasaki FumiakiNakata YusukeKanahara NobuhisaMiyazawa AtsuhiroMashimo YoichiHirose YukiOda YasunoriNiitsu TomihisaOnouchi YoshihiroIyo Masaomi - BACKGROUND: The Hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis (HPA) and its single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) potentially influence depressive symptoms and non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI) among adolescents. Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) may dysregulate HPA axis functioning, with these complex gene-environment interactions showing significant heterogeneity across individuals. This study examined whether depressive symptoms mediate the relationship between ACEs and adolescent NSSI, and whether HPA axis genetic polymorphisms moderate this indirect pathway. METHODS: For this study, 172 adolescents aged 12 to 18 years were recruited from Xuzhou Oriental Hospital affiliated with Xuzhou Medical University as the NSSI group. Additionally, 58 age-, sex-, residence-, and health-matched volunteers were recruited from the local area as the healthy control group. Demographic information was collected through questionnaires, and adverse childhood experiences, depressive symptoms, and non-suicidal self-injury behaviors were assessed using the Adverse Childhood Experiences Scale (ACEs Scale), the Beck Depression Inventory-II (BDI-II), and the Non-Suicidal Self-Injury Behavior Scale (NSSI-BS). Blood samples were collected for HPA axis genotyping targeting the following loci: SKA2 (rs7208505, rs9911583), SLC1A3 (rs2269272), FKBP5 (rs9470080), and AVPR1B (rs28373064), which were analyzed using TaqMan-PCR. All statistical analyses were performed in SPSS 27.0, including Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (HWE), χ² test, and Pearson’s correlation coefficient, as well as PROCESS macro-model mediation analysis and simple slope analysis. RESULTS: Depressive symptoms were found to mediate the association between ACEs and NSSI. The SKA2-rs7208505 polymorphism significantly moderated the relationship between ACEs and depressive symptoms, influencing the indirect pathway from ACEs to depressive symptoms to NSSI. Adolescents with the AA genotype of the SKA2-rs7208505 polymorphism were more susceptible to ACEs and more likely to develop depressive symptoms compared to those with GA and GG genotypes. CONCLUSION: Timely identification and interventions targeting depressive symptoms, especially among individuals with AA genotypes of SKA2-rs7208505 who have experienced ACEs, may be crucial for preventing or reducing the risk of NSSI in adolescents. - Source: PubMed

Tian SusuLiang QingqingZhou WeiHu XinyiLiu YuxuanTian JiayiLuo YunjiaoFang HaiyanWang Wei - Although several approaches have identified individual genes that contribute to autism spectrum disorder (ASD), more research is needed to establish whether these single nucleotide polymorphisms are associated with a lower risk. Studies have found that the oxytocin receptor (OXTR) and arginine-vasopressin receptors (AVPR) genes have an essential role as neuromodulators or neurotransmitters in ASD. Most of these studies have been primarily carried out in the United States, Western Europe, and Australasia, and there is divergence in the conclusions. - Source: PubMed
