Our study in @JAMAPsych ja.ma/4lVx1eu Using 🧬 we found that disruptions in #energy pathways link to specific #MDD symptoms (⬆️ appetite & sleep). This suggests a #depression profile linked to #metabolic risk, opening doors to targeted treatments. #metabolicpsychiatry
Energy Homeostasis in Depression Pathophysiology and Heterogeneity
This study examines whether the genetic liability of metabolic, interoceptive, and motivational pathways involved in energy homeostasis regulation is associated with specific symptoms of major depress...

In May 2024, I joined an inspiring week at the Ernst Strüngmann Forum on #Metabolic #Neuropsychiatry.

Our first outcome is now in Nature Mental Health:
🧠 A Perspective on energy metabolism in psychiatric disorders

More to come in an upcoming volume—stay tuned!
Brain and body energy metabolism and potential for treatment of psychiatric disorders - Nature Mental Health
This Perspective highlights the important role of energy metabolism in psychiatric disorders and sets the groundwork for future studies in the emerging field of metabolic psychiatry.

Great discussion. Already on the lookout for the best opportunity to cite Neher 1967!

Our new study in Translational Psychiatry showed that acylcarnitines (involved in mitochondrial #energy production) were linked to the presence+severity of #depression. Bioenergetic pathways may open new avenues in psychiatry #MetabolicPsychiatry check the paper ➡️: rdcu.be/eaWoN

It was a pleasure to contribute to @thementalelf.bsky.social. In my piece, I discuss findings from a recent study by Spiller et al. (JAMA Psychiatry) on the heterogeneity of symptom presentation in mental disorder diagnoses.
