Abstract:
Objective To explore the relationship between polymorphisms of brain-derived neurotrophic factor(BDNF) gene (rs6265 and rs12273539) and cognitive impairment in depressive disorder.Methods All participants including 73 depressed patients and 71 healthy controls were received clinical and cognitive assessments at admission,and then the depression group was divided into two groups by the score of Beijing version of the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA-BJ).One was depression with cognitive dysfunction group,and the other was depression without cognitive dysfunction group,with 36 and 37 cases respectively.The polymorphisms of BDNF gene was identified by PCR-RFLP.Results No significant difference for rs6265 gene types(x2=5.18,P=0.27),A allele carries (x2 =4.28,P=0.12) and G allele carries (x2 =1.95,P=0.38) among the three groups.There was no significant difference for rs12273539 gene types,allele carries between patients without cognitive dysfunction and controls groups(P＞0.05).There was much more C-allele carries (x2=5.40,P=0.02)and less T-allele(x2=6.06,P=0.01) in patients with cognitive disorder than those in health and it was different in rs12273539 gene types between the two groups(x2=8.38,P=0.02).CC/CT/CT gene type performed different on attention function (P＜0.01).Conclusion BDNF rsl2273539(T/C) gene type has relationship with the onset of cognitive disorder in depressed patients,and there are more C-allele carries in depressive patients.The depression patients with CC gene type are worse on the attention function impairement.
