The role of glutamate and GABA in cognitive dysfunction in schizophrenia and mood disorders - A systematic review of magnetic resonance spectroscopy studies

Mounica Reddy-Thootkur et al.

Summary: There is considerable overlap between schizophrenia and mood disorders, both of which are associated with cognitive deficits and altered glutamatergic and GABAergic neurometabolism. However, the relationship between these neurotransmitters and cognitive dysfunction in mental illness is still not well understood.

Neuropsychological differences between treatment-resistant and treatment-responsive schizophrenia: a meta-analysis

Edward Millgate et al.

Summary: This study systematically reviewed and meta-analyzed the neuropsychological differences between patients with treatment-resistant schizophrenia (TRS) and treatment-responsive controls. The results showed small-to-moderate effect sizes in all domains, with the largest effect size observed in verbal memory and learning.

Associations Between Cognitive Function and Levels of Glutamatergic Metabolites and Gamma-Aminobutyric Acid in Antipsychotic-Naive Patients With Schizophrenia or Psychosis

Kirsten Borup Bojesen et al.

Summary: The study found that antipsychotic-naive patients had lower GABA levels in the ACC and patients with schizophrenia had higher glutamate levels in the thalamus. There was a positive association between glutamatergic metabolites and cognitive function, with Glx levels in the ACC positively linked to working memory and attention.

A multimodal approach to studying the relationship between peripheral glutathione, brain glutamate, and cognition in health and in schizophrenia

Jennifer M. Coughlin et al.

Summary: The study suggests a link between oxidative stress, glutathione levels, and neurocognitive performance in patients with schizophrenia. Lower peripheral glutathione levels were observed in schizophrenia patients compared to healthy controls, and plasma glutathione levels were positively correlated with cognitive performance. Additionally, plasma glutathione levels were also positively correlated with levels of Glx in the dorsal anterior cingulate cortex (dACC).

Dopamine and Glutamate in Antipsychotic-Responsive Compared With Antipsychotic-Nonresponsive Psychosis: A Multicenter Positron Emission Tomography and Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy Study (STRATA)

Alice Egerton et al.

Summary: Variability in the response to antipsychotic medication in schizophrenia may be related to differences in neurobiology between patients. Studies suggest that elevated ACC glutamate levels may be associated with a poorer therapeutic response. Further research is needed to explore the potential impact of ACC glutamate levels on treatment outcomes.

Changes in Brain Glutamate on Switching to Clozapine in Treatment-Resistant Schizophrenia

Grant McQueen et al.

Summary: The study found that 12 weeks of clozapine treatment was associated with a longitudinal reduction in glutamate concentration in the caudate nucleus, but not in the ACC. The reduction in caudate glutamate concentration was positively correlated with percentage improvement in symptoms.

Cross-sectional study comparing cognitive function in treatment responsive versus treatment non-responsive schizophrenia: evidence from the STRATA study

Edward Millgate et al.

Summary: This study found no significant differences in cognitive performance between antipsychotic non-responders and responders, suggesting a lack of clinical distinction between the two groups in the sample. Future research may benefit from using machine learning methods with longitudinal data to identify responder subtypes and explore how cognitive factors interact in schizophrenia.

Association of Age, Antipsychotic Medication, and Symptom Severity in Schizophrenia With Proton Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy Brain Glutamate Level A Mega-analysis of Individual Participant-Level Data

Kate Merritt et al.

Summary: The study suggests that lower brain glutamate levels in patients with schizophrenia may be associated with exposure to antipsychotic medication rather than age-related decline. Higher brain glutamate levels may act as a biomarker of illness severity in schizophrenia.

Neurocognitive Functioning in Individuals at Clinical High Risk for Psychosis A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis

Ana Catalan et al.

Summary: Neurocognitive functioning is a potential biomarker in individuals at clinical high risk for psychosis. The study found medium to large deficits in neurocognitive functioning in CHR-P individuals compared to healthy controls, and less impairment compared to individuals with first-episode psychosis. Meta-regressions identified age and education as significant factors affecting processing speed.
