Future Development of Biomarker in Mental disorders

Fri. Oct 11, 2019 4:30 PM - 6:10 PM Room 12 (503)

Organizer / Chair: Andi Jayalangkara TANRA (Department of Psychiatry, Faculty of Medicine, Universitas Hasanuddin, Makassar, Indonesia), Co-chair: Minoru TAKEBAYASHI (Department of Neuropsychiatry, Faculty of Life Sciences, Kumamoto University, Japan), Discussant: ‌Kristian LIAURY (Department of Psychiatry, Hasanuddin University, Indonesia)

Currently, there is an increasing number of techniques developed for biomarker of mental disorders.
One of that is the sAA (Salivary Alpha Amylase) Enzyme, which is produced by parotic gland in oral cavity. This enzyme could predict the level of stress from patients such as Psychotic, Depression, Bipolar and Anxiety through SAM (Sympathetic Adreno Medullary) system. Measuring the level of this enzyme is easy, safe and non-invasive, nonetheless the result is still in controversy.
However, the trait marker represents the properties of biological processeson behavior which play antecedent and possiblythe pathophysiology role of mental disorder such as schizophrenia.
Therefore, serotonin transporter (SERT) system is still challenging to be explored as a biological marker of major depression, focused in animal model. Dysregulation of immune system is also closely involved in the pathogenesis of depression.
Finally, the glutamate decarboxylase like protein 1 (GADL1)variant could be used as a biomarker to predict therapeutic response to lithium maintenance treatment in bipolar l patients.
The 4 speakers will give contribution for elaborating future development of Biomarker for mental disorders and will enhance interesting discussion in our symposium.
