Contributions of cholinergic receptor muscarinic 1 and CYP1A2 gene variants on the effects of plasma ratio of clozapine/N-desmethylclozapine on working memory in schizophrenia
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Background: Clozapine has heterogenous efficacy in enhancing working memory in schizophrenia. We have previously hypothesized that this is due to opposing effects of clozapine and its metabolite, N-desmethylclozapine, at the muscarinic M1 receptor and demonstrated that a lower clozapine/ N-desmethylclozapine ratio is associated with better working memory than clozapine or N-desmethylclozapine levels alone. Aims: In this study, we expanded the above hypothesis to explore whether genetic variation in the cholinergic receptor muscarinic 1 gene, encoding the M1 receptor, affects the relationship between clozapine/ N-desmethylclozapine and working memory. Further, we explored whether CYP1A2 gene variants affect the ratio of clozapine/ N-desmethylclozapine and by this, working memory performance. Methods: We evaluated two functionally significant single nucleotide polymorphisms, rs1942499 and rs2075748, in cholinergic receptor muscarinic 1, with the haplotype T-A associated with lower transcriptional activity than the haplotype C-G. Further, we examined CYP1A2 *1F, with *1F/*1F conferring high inducibility in the presence of smoking. Results: In a sample of 30 patients with schizophrenia on clozapine monotherapy, clozapine/ N-desmethylclozapine was correlated with working memory only in non-carriers of the haplotype T-A of the cholinergic receptor muscarinic 1 gene. Interaction of CYP1A2 genotype and smoking status significantly affected clozapine concentrations, but there were no significant effects of CYP1A2 genotype and smoking status on the relationship between clozapine/ N-desmethylclozapine on working memory. Conclusions: Our finding that the relationship between clozapine/ N-desmethylclozapine and working memory is specific to patients with potentially higher transcription of M1 receptor (i.e. non-carriers of the haplotype T-A of cholinergic receptor muscarinic 1) supports a cholinergic mechanism underlying this relationship.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
