DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Bone mass achieved by early adulthood is a major determinant of lifetime risk for osteoporosis. Therefore, optimizing peak bone mass is crucial to avoiding bone fracture with its associated morbidity and mortality. Emerging evidence suggests that serotonin plays a central role in bone metabolism. For example, preclinical experiments have shown that bone cells express the serotonin transporter and a variety of functional serotonin receptors whose activity modulates bone turnover. Epidemiologic studies have linked selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) to reduced bone mineral density and increased fracture risk in the elderly. SSRIs are widely used in youths to treat a number of psychiatric disorders. However, while their short-term efficacy and safety have been established, their long-term safety remains little investigated. We, here, propose to recruit, in a 2-year prospective observational study, 15 to 20 year-old participants upon the initiation of SSRI treatment. During the period of the Award, bone mineral density of the lumbar spine and whole body will be measured using dual x-ray absorptiometry and of the radius using peripheral quantitative computerized tomography. A detailed psychiatric assessment will be conducted to control for psychopathology, as a potential confounding factor affecting bone mineralization. Changes in psychiatric treatment during the follow up period will also be documented and accounted for. By using a group of healthy controls, of comparable age and sex distribution, we aim to evaluate 1) whether psychopathology, at baseline, is associated with low bone mass, 2) if treatment with SSRIs suppresses bone mineralization, and 3) if the discontinuation of the SSRI is followed by a restoration of bone mineral accrual. 4) Furthermore, genetic testing will investigate whether variants of the serotonin system genes moderate the effect of SSRI treatment on bone mineral density. In sum, this work aims to improve the long-term safety of psychiatric treatments in order to optimize functioning and the quality of life of those who suffer from psychiatric disorders. This is consistent with the mission of the National Institute of Mental Health.

描述（由申请人提供）：成年早期达到的骨量是骨质疏松症终生风险的主要决定因素。因此，优化峰值骨量对于避免骨折及其相关的发病率和死亡率至关重要。 新出现的证据表明，血清素在骨代谢中起着核心作用。例如，临床前实验表明，骨细胞表达血清素转运蛋白和多种功能性血清素受体，其活性调节骨转换。流行病学研究表明，选择性5-羟色胺再摄取抑制剂（SSRIs）与老年人骨密度降低和骨折风险增加有关。SSRIs被广泛用于青少年治疗许多精神疾病。然而，虽然它们的短期疗效和安全性已经确定，但它们的长期安全性仍然很少研究。 在此，我们建议在一项为期2年的前瞻性观察性研究中招募15至20岁的参与者开始SSRI治疗。在颁奖期间，腰椎和全身的骨矿物质密度将使用双X射线吸收测量法测量，桡骨将使用外周定量计算机断层扫描测量。将进行详细的精神病学评估，以控制精神病理学，作为影响骨矿化的潜在混杂因素。还将记录并说明随访期间精神科治疗的变化。通过使用一组年龄和性别分布相似的健康对照，我们旨在评估1）基线时精神病理学是否与低骨量相关，2）SSRI治疗是否抑制骨矿化，3）SSRI停药后骨矿物质增加是否恢复。4)此外，基因检测将调查5-羟色胺系统基因的变异是否会减轻SSRI治疗对骨密度的影响。 总之，这项工作旨在改善精神病治疗的长期安全性，以优化精神病患者的功能和生活质量。这与国家精神卫生研究所的使命是一致的。
