Differential association of antioxidative defense genes with white matter integrity in youth bipolar disorder
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Oxidative stress is associated with white matter diffusion metrics in adults with bipolar disorder (BD). We examined the association of single-nucleotide polymorphisms in the oxidative stress system, superoxide dismutase-2 (SOD2) rs4880 and glutathione peroxidase-3 (GPX3) rs3792797 with fractional anisotropy (FA) and radial diffusivity (RD) in youth with BD. Participants included 104 youth (age 17.5 ± 1.7 years; 58 BD, 46 healthy controls). Saliva samples were obtained for genotyping, and diffusion tensor imaging was acquired. Voxel-wise whole-brain white matter diffusion analyses controlled for age, sex, and race. There were significant diagnosis-by-SOD2 rs4880 interaction effects for FA and RD in major white matter tracts. Within BD, the group with two copies of the G-allele (GG) showed lower FA and higher RD than A-allele carriers. Whereas within the control group, the GG group showed higher FA and lower RD than A-allele carriers. Additionally, FA was higher and RD was lower within the control GG group compared to the BD GG group. No significant findings were observed for GPX3 rs3793797. The current study revealed that, within matter tracts known to differ in BD, associations of SOD2 rs4880 GG genotype with both FA and RD differed between BD vs healthy control youth. The SOD2 enzyme encoded by the G-allele, has higher antioxidant capacity than the enzyme encoded by the A-allele. We speculate that the current findings of lower FA and higher RD of the BD GG group compared to the other groups reflects attenuation of the salutary antioxidant effects of GG genotype on white matter integrity in youth with BD, in part due to predisposition to oxidative stress. Future studies incorporating other genetic markers and oxidative stress biomarkers are warranted.

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.
