Brief Summary: We plan to use a metabolomics lipid platform to map biochemical signatures in unmedicated schizophrenic patients prior to and 4 weeks post treatment with the antipsychotic drug aripiprazole and compare that to lipid perturbations induced by risperidone These drugs have inherently different risk for metabolic adverse effects and patients respond to them differently Metabolic signatures for the drugs capture significant biochemical information that could explain part of the basis for varied drug response within individuals and will highlight pathways implicated in drug action and in disease pathogenesis possibly enabling new drug design strategies In addition we will compare patients to healthy controls at baseline in regard lipid profiles
Detailed Description: Schizophrenia SCH is a devastating mental disease that affects the human population worldwide with an incidence of about 1 Most individuals with this illness benefit from long-term pharmacotherapy however the therapeutic effects of antipsychotic treatment are inconsistent incomplete and often countered by significant side-effects associated with long-term physical morbidity eg tardive dyskinesia obesity hyperglycemia hyperlipidemia Metabolomics is a powerful new technology that provides a snap shot of biochemical pathways at a particular point in time It has been earmarked as an important area to develop under the NIH roadmap initiative We plan to use this platform to map biochemical signatures in unmedicated schizophrenic patients prior to and 4 weeks post treatment with the antipsychotic drug aripiprazole and compare that to lipid perturbations induced by risperidone These drugs have inherently different risk for metabolic adverse effects and patients respond to them differently Metabolic signatures for the drugs capture significant biochemical information that could explain part of the basis for varied drug response within individuals and will highlight pathways implicated in drug action and in disease pathogenesis possibly enabling new drug design strategiesIn addition we will compare patients to healthy controls at baseline in regard lipid profiles to assess whether lipid profiles differ between unmedicated schizophrenia patients and healthy controls
