Subgenual cingulate volumes in affected and unaffected offspring of bipolar parents
Original language description
Background: Bipolar disorders (BD) have a strong genetic underpinning, yet no biological vulnerability markers for BD have been identified. Decreased volumes of subgenual cingulate (SGC) were replicated in familial bipolar patients. Presence of abnormality in unaffected subjects at genetic risk for an illness needs to be established before SGC volumes can be used as an endophenotype. This is the first study of SGC volumes in affected and unaffected subjects at familial risk for mood disorders. Method: High-risk participants were recruited from families multiply affected with BD. The high-risk sample included 13 affected and 13 unaffected offspring of bipolar I parents, who were matched by age and sex with 31 controls without a personal or family history of psychiatric disorders. The expanded sample consisted of 24 unaffected, 19 affected subjects all with a first or second degree relative suffering from BD I or II. The age range for all subjects was 15?30 years.
