Evidence for circadian SST expression in the amygdala and disrupted circadian rhythms and rhythmic peaks of anxiety in BD suggest a disruption of rhythmic expression of SST in this disorder.
We report reductions in somatostatin and vasoactive intestinal peptide mRNAs in prefrontal and orbitofrontal cortices in bipolar disorder (n=31) and schizophrenia (n=35) compared to controls (n=34) and increased calbindin mRNA in schizophrenia.
