Abstract
Objective: We aim to provide a targeted integration to investigate neuronal mechanisms underlying mismatch negativity (MMN) in bipolar disorder (BD), by looking at the association between temporal MMN and in vivo hippocampal glutathione (GSH) measured via proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1H-MRS). Methods: Twenty-eight people with BD and 22 matched controls underwent a two-tone passive, duration deviant MMN paradigm as well as 1H-MRS. GSH concentration in the left hippocampus was determined and Pearson's correlations were used to identify associations between MMN amplitude and in vivo GSH concentration. Results: In controls MMN amplitude was negatively associated with GSH at the left temporal site (. r=. -0.542, 95% C.I.: -0.810, -0.060), and a similar trend at the right (. r=. -0.374, 95% C.I.: -0.678, 0.007). There were no significant associations in BD. Conclusions: The results provide insight into the relationship between MMN and in vivo GSH, and demonstrate that the metabolite system regulating MMN is abnormal in BD, compared to controls. This may indicate a lack of tightly regulated hippocampal NMDA functioning, or that NMDA receptor regulation in BD is mediated by other factors. Significance: These results provide insight into the underlying basis of hippocampal NMDA disturbances implicated in BD. © 2014 International Federation of Clinical Neurophysiology.
