All patients were genotyped for 684,616 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). A total of 50 monoamine neurotransmitter-related candidate genes, including HTR2A and HTR2C from the serotoninergic system, CHRM4 and CHRNB1 from the cholinergic system, and DRD2 from the dopaminergic system, were selected to conduct a gene-based genome-wide association study of the antidepressant effects of ketamine.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>Gene-set enrichment analysis revealed that the pathway underlying neuroactive ligand-receptor interaction (KEGG) played a pivotal role in the biomechanisms underlying ketamine's antidepressant effect. Specifically, the genes and SNPs related to the cholinergic system (e.g., rs2644247 in CHRM5), μ1 opioid receptor (e.g., rs2473546 in OPRM1), dopaminergic system (e.g., rs2617577 in SLC6A3), serotonergic system (HTR2A), cannabinoid receptor (CNR2), and σ1 receptor (SIGMAR1) were associated with the antidepressant effect of low-dose ketamine.</p><p><strong>Discussion: </strong>Low-dose ketamine has an antidepressant effect, which may be associated with multiple monoamine neurotransmitter systems and the σ1 receptor.</p>","PeriodicalId":16892,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Psychopharmacology","volume":" ","pages":"593-602"},"PeriodicalIF":4.5,"publicationDate":"2025-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143700583","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
