Recent studies highlighted significant associations between treatment-resistant depression (TRD) and polygenic risk score (PRS) for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in adults as well as a negative association between antidepressant symptom improvement with both schizophrenia and bipolar. Here, we sought to validate these findings with symptom remission in LLD. We analyzed the Incomplete Response in Late Life Depression: Getting to Remission (IRL-GRey) sample consisting of adults aged 60+ with major depression (N = 342) treated with venlafaxine for 12 weeks. We constructed PRSs for ADHD, depression, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, neuroticism, general intelligence, antidepressant symptom remission and antidepressant percentage symptom improvement using summary statistics from the Psychiatric Genomics Consortium and the GWAS Catalog. Logistic regression was used to test the association of PRSs with venlafaxine symptom remission and percentage symptom improvement, co-varying for the genomic principal components, age, sex and depressive symptoms severity at baseline. We found a nominal (i.e., p value ≤ 0.05) association between symptom remission and both PRS for ADHD and (OR = 1.36 [1.07, 1.73], p = 0.011) and PRS for bipolar disorder (OR = 0.75 [0.58, 0.97], p = 0.031), as well as between percentage symptom improvement and PRS for general intelligence (beta = 6.81 (SE = 3.122), p = 0.03).

However, the chemical resistance greatly limits its therapeutic potential. The study aimed to uncover the specific role and new mechanisms of CPT1B in the cisplatin resistance of LUAD. Bioinformatics analysis was utilized to analyze the expression level and enriched pathway of CPT1B in LUAD. The expression of CPT1B in LUAD cells was determined by utilizing quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and western blot (WB). The cisplatin resistance in LUAD was measured with IC<sub>50</sub> values obtained from the CCK-8 assay. We used the corresponding reagent kit and WB analysis to determine the levels of triglycerides, cholesterol, phospholipids, fatty acid β-oxidation (FAO) rate, and expression of lipid metabolism-related proteins. Finally, the regulation relationship between CPT1B and ZNF263 was confirmed through bioinformatics analysis, dual-luciferase, and chromatin immunoprecipitation assays. The present investigation revealed that CPT1B was upregulated in LUAD, participating in fatty acid metabolism pathways. In vitro studies have shown that upregulation of CPT1B promoted cisplatin resistance in LUAD cells. This promotion effect induced by the high expression of CPT1B on cisplatin resistance in LUAD was weakened after the addition of the FAO inhibitor Etomoxir. Mechanistically, ZNF263 was capable of binding to the promoter of CPT1B to activate its transcription, thereby enhancing FAO and promoting cisplatin resistance in LUAD cells. In summary, ZNF263 enhances cisplatin resistance in LUAD cells by upregulating CPT1B expression.
