Abstract

Mitochondrial DNA profiles comprise some of the most inclusive and broadly representative genomic databases publicly available, containing diverse haplogroups from all over the world; however, there is less emphasis on mutations' biochemical and neurological impact. Mitochondria’s function in calcium regulation is often cited, but few weave in its roles in immunity, bone homeostasis, cytokinesis, and apoptosis. While this approach is apt for increasing statistical significance, it can miss the bigger picture. Currently, there are enough associations—such as the effects of calcium dysregulation, the role of ROS in circadian rhythm determination, and cytokines’ interaction with mitochondria—to speculate on causality. This systematic review re-contextualizes previously reported haplotypes and single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in their biochemical environment, reports on potential systemic effects of altered mitochondria, explores common setbacks for studying bipolar disorders, and suggests new technologies that could ameliorate some of them using a novel graphic representation of each study’s findings.

Introduction

Although humans’ mtDNA is uniformly circular, everyone differs in the number of mtDNA molecules per mitochondrion (copy number) [5,6], the exact haplotype of the mtDNA, the level of heteroplasmy (intra-individual mtDNA haplotype diversity) [7], and even the shape of their mitochondria [8].

Such a varied structure suggests a multitude of functions, which proves correct. Mitochondria house the TCA cycle and the electron transport chain (ETC). Additionally, they engage in lipid metabolism, release ROS (signaling molecules on top of their damaging nature [9]), engage in calcium signaling [10,11], facilitate apoptosis [12], and regulate both nuclear and mitochondrial protein degradation [13].

This, together with mitochondria’s systemic roles in cytokinesis [14]], immunity [14-17], neurology [5] [6,18], and bone homeostasis [19,20], make it a versatile powerhouse within the body. Free-floating mitochondria have been found in both human and fetal bovine sera, expressing genes that regulate immune function [21]. However, this means that any downtick in utility has the potential to cause complex, messy disorders that do not fit nicely into any other box. Due to neurons’ steep energy demands, the brain is on the frontline of any metabolic disorder. This is seen clearly in altered mental statuses conferred by diabetic incidents [22] and the influence of eating disorders such as anorexia nervosa on confusion [23]. In other words, the symptoms of metabolic disorders bleed into psychiatry. Not everything that affects the brain occurs in the brain.

The etiologies of many mental illnesses, including bipolar, remain elusive. Bipolar is a group of mental disorders characterized by varying, prolonged, virtually unprompted periods of mania/hypomania, bipolar depression (as opposed to unipolar depression), and possibly mixed states. Psychosis and emotional blunting may occur throughout, and remission is known as euthymia. Euthymia is biochemically and mentally distinct from a normative mental state.

Bipolar disorders are subject to the kindling effect [24], meaning that each episode is more extreme than the last. It shares this phenomenon (as well as potential treatment with lamotrigine) with epilepsy.

Bipolar is the sixth leading cause of disability worldwide [33]. However, it overlaps with other disorders and is difficult to diagnose, with 31.9% of probands suffering for 13 years before finding the true diagnosis [34] [25]. This lack of identification is a huge problem; 25% of bipolar probands will attempt suicide in their lifetime, and 11% will succeed [34]. This combines with other factors to decrease probands’ lifespan by 11-20 years [35].

The list of comorbidities is lengthy, even putting aside other mental disorders: diabetes [26,27], low bone mass [28], decreases in visual motor perception [29], atrial fibrillation [30], asthma [31], dyslipidemia [36], hypertension [36], CVD [36], T. gondii infection [36], myocardial infarction [36], systemic lupus erythematosus [36], and temperature fluctuations [32]. When compared to healthy controls, bipolar probands present with activation changes in the thalamus [28], dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) [531*], hippocampus [28], and decreased volume in the anterior cingulate cortex [110*]. Many cytokines, such as TNF-α [39], vary significantly between states, as do serum and CSF calcium levels [40]. 

This prevalence, severity, and suicide risk all demand a convincing etiology—and mitochondria almost certainly play a role. Mitochondria interact with cytokines such as TNF-α [113], their count and morphology change in bipolar [114], and they are one of the main players in calcium signaling. Calcium homeostasis interacts with many of these comorbidities and symptoms [115].  However, this illness is complex. Solving the problem of its etiology will take a greater sample size than is reasonable from a singular study.

Although there are excellent reviews on bipolar disorders and mitochondrial physiology [41], there is no review of the utility of available databases. This review aims to integrate the physiology of mitochondria with the immune and skeletal system, explain salient existing database options, and clarify where they fall short for describing bipolar disorders.

Methods

PubMed was searched for the combinations of: “bipolar disorder,” “mtDNA,” "mitochondrial DNA,” “cytokine,” "bone," "calcium,” and "mitochondria” on 12-21-2023. These searches provided 580 results, or 521 unique articles, which were then appraised by the methods outlined in Fig. 1A. Only primary sources were included. Other reviews and meta-analyses were excluded to avoid the possibility of evaluating outdated or duplicate studies. Studies were considered “relevant” if they met the following criteria.

In epidemiological studies, the bipolar group had to be the test group/cohort of at least 100 subjects. Thus, a study on the effect of alcohol dependence on bipolar was excluded due to the confounding variable of alcohol dependence. If the study investigating bipolar was one of a few cohorts, and the bipolar sample met the qualifications, it was included. However, the results for non-bipolar mental disorders (such as ASD) were not reported. Studies needed to evaluate a characteristic of bipolar and not suggest a clinical course. If this epidemiological study was a genetic analysis, it had to specify a gene, not a haplogroup.

Mitochondrial haplotypes are broad categories, and results based on haplogroups are inconsistent. This does not mean that mtDNA is irrelevant—rather, smaller subgroups can influence the neurological risk of conditions such as Alzheimer ’s disease [42]. While there are no studies directly addressing subgroup analysis in bipolar disorder, it would certainly make sense of the discrepancies in the literature. To ensure even reporting, only specific mutations were considered.

Mouse studies’ requirements were similar: to have an appropriate strain and sample size. The appropriate sample size was met if the difference between the total animals and the total test groups was greater than 10.

In vitro studies needed slightly different inclusion/exclusion criteria. A list of comorbidities [43], medications, and biochemical markers associated with bipolar disorder were compiled. Relevant studies either investigated bipolar and one relevancy term or investigated three (or more) of the relevancy terms. The relevancy terms were as follows: childhood maltreatment/trauma, CVD, mitochondrial dysfunction, diabetes, dyslipidemia, senescence/aging, blood-brain barrier, metabolic syndrome, obesity, HPA disruption, bone mass, CKD, sleep deprivation, hippocampus, T. gondii, dentate gyrus, dorsolateral prefrontal cortex, prefrontal cortex, ROS/oxidative stress, mitochondrial copy number, mania/ hyperactivity (in mice), NF-κB, TNF-α, IL-6, IL-8, BRPF2, α-CaMKII, CRP, P2X7R, mitophagy, apoptosis, IL-1β, Lithium Lamotrigine, Valproate/valproic acid, Quetiapine, Olanzapine, Aripiprizole, Risperidone, any SSRIs, calcium, Complex 1, Complex 2, Polg1, LPS. iPSC studies claimed the correct significance, outlined in this review [44].

All relevant studies reported no author bias and had accurate abstracts. All were peer-reviewed.

Results from the relevant studies were tabulated in the supplementary table, which is the source for all the following figures to create ‘etiological fingerprints’ for each given variable—including comorbidities, cytokine elevations, ROS, cell cycle alterations, calcium alterations, and mitochondrial alterations. These were the columns of our table, with the exposure variables on the x-axis and our dependent variables on the y-axis. We then screened the following biometric databases for the qualities outlined in (Figure 1B)  MITOMAP, MitBASE, MSeqDR, GnomA, PGC, and GWAS. The benefits and drawbacks of each were tabulated and compared to the literature review to estimate the efficacy of the available sources.

Diagnoses and Symptoms

Findings Map 1: A summary of dependent variables associated with bipolar and vetted symptoms of bipolar.

The finalists confirmed the existing notion that bipolar is an inflammatory disease. TNF-α, CRP, IL-1β, monocyte activators, and Complex I mutations all showed symptom profiles similar to bipolar. Both early and late onset bipolar were associated with mutations in Cytochrome B and Complex I, but the mutations differed. ND4 affected both phenotypes, whereas NDUFV2 was only associated with late onset [45] [46]. They also showed different epistasis—with late-onset preferring MGAM and early onset interacting with IL34 [46].

Although studies show consistent associations with TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-1β, these are dramatically affected by sample processing time, which may differ between collection sites [47]. While in vitro studies still support the involvement of these three cytokines, sample processing time remains a silent confounding variable for all epidemiological studies. The only cytokine that survived the correction was a decrease in IL-8. The effects of sample processing time on CRP were not tested. Even with this confounding variable, TNF-α, IL-6, CRP, and MCP-1 are all associated with the duration of bipolar and are differentially affected by depressive and manic states [48].

Medication

Findings Map 2: A summary of dependent variables associated with common medications for bipolar.

The etiological fingerprints of many medications prescribed for bipolar were also surveyed. Lithium and d-amphetamine were the most investigated drugs—lithium, because it is widely recognized as the gold standard for the treatment of bipolar (mania, in particular); d-amphetamine, because it can induce mania. These drugs are appealing proxies for euthymia/mania in vitro. No drug seemed to simulate mixed states, rapid cycling, or bipolar (as opposed to unipolar) depressive episodes.

All investigated drugs (except valproate) act on cytokines—especially IL-6, IL-1β, TNF-α, and IL-2. However, each has a unique profile. Lamotrigine is more effective against bipolar depression than mania and is exceptionally effective against rapid cycling [49]. Therefore, building a unique etiological fingerprint for each drug could illuminate subtle differences between mood disorders. Valproate, the drug with the least measured anti-inflammatory action, was the only drug found to independently increase fracture risk.

Lithium demonstrated anti-inflammatory properties, even in cerebral and cardiac ischemia [50]. It partially diminished the etiological fingerprint of bipolar—and lithium response correlated with an innate ability to ‘fill in the gaps.’ For example, one study found lithium increased cardiac IL-6; lithium-responsive rats showed a decreased concentration of IL-6 in the orbitofrontal cortex [51]. These are different tissues, but the larger pattern suggests the potential of a findings map—even when the findings from one study are unilluminating, it is easy to see that lithium responsivity protects against a potential inconsistency in lithium’s action. A findings map can identify intermittent problems quickly because they are all recorded in the same place.

Biochemical Findings

Findings Map 3: A summary of biochemical findings in bipolar.

In vitro studies highlighted LPS and PIC as the most common mechanisms of inducing cellular inflammation. Both produced etiological fingerprints similar to bipolar, but their intracellular effects differed. PIC goes through the TLR3 pathway, while LPS goes through the TLR4 pathway. The latter has been implicated in bipolar, whereas the former is seldom mentioned.

IL-6, ROS, TNF-α, and IL-1β formed the etiological fingerprint for LPS activation, which could all be normalized by inhibitors of the mitochondrial calcium uniporter (MCU) and antioxidants such as rice bran oil, açai extract, and palm oil. Some preliminary studies have even suggested that antioxidants such as CoQ10 aid the recovery of bipolar depression [52, confirming that this is not just an invitro phenomenon.

PIC elicited IL-6, TNF-α, IL-1β, and miscellaneous monocyte-activating factors. Maternal PIC exposure during pregnancy altered the glial density in bipolar-associated areas, such as the pyramidal neurons of the dorsal dentate gyrus, which interacted with adolescent social stress to create phenotypes such as gregariousness and hypermobility—both key symptoms of mania/hypomania.

Analogous Conditions

Findings Map 4: A summary of dependent variables associated with bipolar.

Certain comorbidities appeared in the course of the review. Diabetes looks dissimilar to bipolar; however, the study did not focus on the cytokine profile associated with the disease. It should be noted that Diabetes Mellitus Type II is associated with inflammation [36]. Sepsis was included due to the comorbidity of chronic infections, age was included because of the correlation with accelerated aging [53], and hypoxia was included as hypoxic injury may play a role in mood disorders [54].

One point of interest was that lithium was able to reverse the inflammation brought on by sepsis. This study was done on osteoblasts of normal C57BL/6 db/db mice. Even without a bipolar model, that data point suggests lithium’s anti-inflammatory mechanism is a direct effect of the drug and not a by-product of a purely psychological process.

Genetic and Transcriptive Anomalies

Findings Map 5: A summary of bipolar-associated genetic and transcription anomalies.

Genetic and transcriptive studies revealed important metabolic discrepancies—the most modified variables were ROS, locomotors activity, TNF-α, IL-6, and mitochondrial calcium. Disc1-Q31L interacted most with the elements of bipolar etiological fingerprint, followed closely by alterations in TFAM and CACNA1C. The MCU and CACNA1C showed the closest match for the etiological fingerprint of bipolar.

TFAM expression also affected many of bipolar important variables, but it had mixed effects. Sometimes, its cytokines would match bipolar' fingerprint; other times, it would deviate, but TFAM always affected bipolar' important elements. Differences in the expression and activity of MCU also created fingerprints similar to bipolar—MCU has a synergistic effect on the amount of ROS with CACNA1C. MCU and TFAM represent strong, under-researched links from mitochondria to neuropsychiatric disease.

Table 1: A summary of popular databases and their utility.

Several open-access databases provided excellent options for data mining. PGC approached the stringent qualifications, but one would have to combine resources to investigate the role of mitochondria. PGC meets the nDNA requirement (which must be there understand the role of molecules such as TFAM and the MCU) but omits mtDNA. MITOMAP is the leading open-access mtDNA database surveyed but still suffers from a small sato mple size. Depending on the study, utilizing multiple mtDNA databases may be advisable. None have the sort of longitudinal metabolic data required to capture the etiology of psychiatric disorders. None have automatic tools for generating forest plots. Although these open-access tools are extensive, more work is needed to investigate mitochondria’s implications in neuropsychiatric disorders.

Discussion

The literature on bipolar is mixed, and it is not without its problems; however, enough agreement exists between in vitro, in vivo, and epidemiological studies to suggest that the link is not purely from sample processing time. Each study suffers from disparate confounding variables, but they all converge on a set of culprits: elevations in TNF-α., IL-6, IL-1β, and ROS; expression differences in CACNA1C (CamKIIα), TFAM, and Disc1-Q31L; and comorbidities of diabetes and insomnia. Including the action of common medications particularly strengthens this analysis—serving almost as a negative control.

Each medication has a different etiological fingerprint. Valproate interacts less with cytokines than lamotrigine, lithium, or topiramate; however, it is the only drug associated with an independent increase in fracture risk. Given TNF-α’s role in bone resorption (through RANKL), RANKL’s action on Complex I through ESCIT [55], Complex I’s association with bipolar (Findings Map 1), and risperidone’s long-term metabolism shift from plasma to bone marrow (Findings Map 2): bone physiology is heavily implicated in bipolar. Other affected processes included circadian rhythms, autophagy, apoptosis, angiogenesis, collagen deposition, osteoblast/clast differentiation, calcium regulation, cell signaling, ROS, bacterial immune response, T cell activation, and glial activation.

Epidemiological Studies

One silent problem in the psychiatric epidemiological world is diagnosis. The cultural reluctance of patients to come forward, symptomatic overlap with other conditions, and the presence of comorbidities make it difficult to distinguish bipolar from conditions like borderline personality disorder. Some studies sidestep this by having multiple psychiatrists confirm each diagnosis; however, this is not an option in many situations.

One easy variable to check is the sex of the probands. Bipolar is a sexually dimorphic condition on many levels—including the regulation of cytokines [56], whether mutations such as rs1006737 are risk factors [57], and the risk of rapid cycling [58]. The risk contributed by rs1006737 is particularly illustrating: in women, it is protective; in men, it is a risk factor. Had that study neglected to split its group by sex, they would likely have found no significant change. Many studies that found no significance in genetic or cytokine data did not split based on sex.

Finally, a large number of studies initially surveyed were inadequately controlled. The control group should exceed the test group, and it is ideal to use multiple controls if possible. Many studies that met the sample size requirement had disproportionately small control groups and thus were excluded.

Mouse Studies

The statistical problems found in epidemiological studies extend to mouse studies. Perhaps because most mouse studies represent a proof of concept, statistical rigor is lacking. Some studies were excluded because they neglected to include the strain and age of their rodents. Other excluded studies were as small as three mice per group, yet they tried to suggest an effect on an entirely different species. While it is essential to minimize waste of life and resources, there is a lack of standard statistical practices [59]—or, if they do follow statistical best practices, they were not reported in the methods sections. While consulting a statistician during the study design would be ideal, [59] provides excellent, open-access statistical resources for those interested in animal studies.

In vitro Studies

In vitro studies have their problems as well. iPSC studies fail to outrun statistical problems. Each cell line is derived from one individual, making it, at its root, a sample size of one. Many studies surveyed derived 3-5 iPSC lines (due to the difficulty of the procedure)—which is an incredible model, but it is not generalizable to the general public unless it is 1) an isogenic pair study, 2) a multiple isogenic pair study or 3) meets the minimum sample size for an epidemiological study [44]. No iPSC studies survived these criteria.

As for the rest of the cell cultures, one detail stood out: the 1% mix of penicillin/streptomycin used to prevent bacterial contamination. Many antibiotics, including penicillin and streptomycin [60], are known to cause mitochondrial dysfunction and ROS overproduction. This puts cybrid/cell culture studies on shaky ground; are the given mutations indicating a native change in ROS production, or are they simply showing a difference in the mitochondrial response to penicillin? This overlooked factor threatens the validity of every in vitro study surveyed.

Limitations

The present study also suffers from constraints. The etiological fingerprint of bipolar was composed solely from the studies reviewed. Biomarkers and symptoms are inevitably omitted from the supplementary table. For example, there was no dedicated search for disturbances in the HPA axis, so ‘cortisol levels’ were undervalued. Future reviews would develop an even more extensive findings map, increasing the value of bipolar’s “fingerprint.”

Applying the rigorous standards for iPSC studies eliminated human neurons, whereas many approved cell culture lines are derived from rat neurons. This is not ideal. Future studies would provide a better framework for weighing cell lines against each other.

Another note—although not necessarily a limitation—is heterogeneity in the tissues studied. The tissue type affects medication intake and the efficacy of modifying factors (Supplementary Findings Map). Even tiny differences across brain regions significantly affect how the cells secrete, respond to, and are exposed to any given independent variable. This diversity is necessary; however, it is important not to take studies as a blanket elevation, decrease, or non-significance of cytokines.

Improved studies would survey more databases, represent certainty in each study more clearly, and increase the scope of the review to include childhood trauma, neurotransmitter abnormalities, and HPA axis disturbances.

Looking Forward

There is a demand for innovative, well-controlled studies on bipolar in all areas mentioned. One promising area for epidemiological cytokine studies is the development of wearable, real-time cytokine measurement [61]. With the caveat of caution against generalizing cytokine levels between tissues, this is a badly needed, low-maintenance option that completely avoids the sample processing time issue while yielding a time-dependent cytokine fingerprint. Future studies should avoid combining the sample into a coed cohort.

Promising areas for further in vitro and in vivo research include the role of RANKL, ESCIT, TFAM, and the MCU on bipolar. The advent of CRISPR-based manipulation of mtDNA also allows for more targeted studies on Complex I and III. Above all, a sterile, antibiotic-free growth medium is badly needed.

As we move into the age of precision medicine, more attention must be paid to statistical validity and the intuitive presentation of continuous data. This means providing stellar databases with combined mtDNA and nDNA, simple tools for illustrating relative statistical validity, and basic features such as forest plot generators and force-directed graphs. Many filters should be available, and updating the database with more samples should be possible. Bipolar requires a dizzying scope of data and effort, making it the ideal disorder to target through open-source databases.
