Overview of Gene Research
TRANK1, also known as Tetratricopeptide repeat and ankyrin repeat containing 1, is significantly associated with bipolar disorder (BD). Genes highly correlated with TRANK1 are enriched in biological processes related to dendritic spine, synaptic plasticity, axon guidance, and circadian entrainment [2].
In BD, the administration of type 1 interferon can induce the expression of TRANK1, which is associated with elevated circulating biomarkers of the impaired blood-brain barrier. Intestine microbiota-dependent type 1 interferon signalling may induce the over-expression of TRANK1, compromising the integrity of the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and contributing to BD [1].
In a mice model, fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) with 'BD microbiota' led to a depression-like phenotype, elevated mRNA levels of inflammatory cytokines and TRANK1 in the hippocampus and prefrontal cortex. In vitro, LPS treatment activated pro-inflammatory factor secretion in BV-2 cells, upregulating neuronal TRANK1 mRNA expression [3].
In conclusion, TRANK1 is strongly linked to bipolar disorder and may be involved in the disruption of the blood-brain barrier and neuroinflammation, potentially through microbiota-gut-brain axis modulation. Understanding TRANK1's role could provide new insights into the pathophysiology of BD and other related psychiatric disorders.
