Sažetak

Background: Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ) has a key role in regulating both neurogenesis and various
metabolic processes, including adipogenesis and glucose homeostasis. In this study, it was aimed to compare the serum PPARγ levels
and metabolic syndrome (MetS) parametres of patients with Bipolar Disorder (BD) diagnosed manic-depressive-euthymic episodes
with those of healthy subjects.
Subjects and Methods: We included 121 male patients with BD type I, 44 in mania, 35 in depression and 42 in euthymic state,
and 41 healthy controls. Serum PPARγ levels, inflammation indicators (CRP, neutrophil, leukocyte, and albumin) and Mets parametres
were measured.
Results: There were no statistically significant differences between the groups in terms of PPARγ values. PPARγ serum level is
highest in the control group and then euthymic, manic and depressive episodes continue to decrease, respectively. However, there was a
significant difference between the depressive group with MetS and without MetS in terms of serum PPARγ levels. A statistically significant
correlation was found between PPARγ and the other serum markers such as low-density lipoprotein (p=0.022), HbA1c (p=0.002),
neutrophils levels (0.001), white blood cell (p=0.025), and clinical features such as age at first treatment (p=0.024), age at first episode
(p=0.039), and smoking (0.013).
Conclusions: We suggest that PPARγ may be a key factor in the BD depressive group with MetS. Not finding any relationship
between the PPARγ levels and the episode of BD may be related with the absence of MetS in the individuals. MetS parametres must also
be considered if PPARγ is to be evaluated in the future investigations.
