Abstract
Here we investigated whether antipsychotic treatment was influenced by three polymorphisms: rs10798059 (BanI) in the phospholipase A2 (PLA2)G4A gene, rs4375 in PLA2G6, and rs1549637 in PLA2G4C. A total of 186 antipsychotic-naïve first-episode psychosis patients or nonadherent chronic psychosis individuals (99 males and 87 females) were genotyped by polymerase chain reaction analysis/restriction fragment length polymorphism. At baseline, and after 8 weeks of treatment with various antipsychotic medications, we assessed patients’ Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) scores, PANSS factors, and metabolic syndrome-related parameters (fasting plasma lipid and glucose levels, and body mass index). We found that PLA2G4A polymorphism influenced changes in PANSS psychopathology, and PLA2G6 polymorphism influenced changes in PANSS psychopathology and metabolic parameters. PLA2G4C polymorphism did not show any impact on PANSS psychopathology or metabolic parameters. The polymorphisms’ effect sizes were estimated as moderate to strong, with contributions ranging from around 6.2–15.7%. Furthermore, the polymorphisms’ effects manifested in a gender-specific manner.
