Mood Stabilizer-induced Metabolic Abnormalities in Bipolar Disorder

The potential effects of microbiota in bipolar disorder (BD) with microbiota-related dysfunction have not yet been explored clinically, and the integration of microbiota and pharmacometabolomic approaches can provide us the identification of the significant effects of mood stabilizers on metabolic homeostasis, treatment response, and cognitive performance. Therefore, we propose to develop the integration of the microbiota and pharmacometabolomics knowledge base about the mood stabilizer-induced metabolic abnormalities in BD patients.
