Abstract
Depressive disorders have a significant impact on public health, and depression have an unsatisfactory recurrence rate and are challenging to treat. Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) are RNAs that do not code protein, which have been shown to be crucial for transcriptional regulation. NcRNAs are important to the onset, progress and treatment of depression because they regulate various physiological functions. This makes them distinctively useful as biomarkers for diagnosing and tracking responses to therapy among individuals with depression. It is important to seek out and summarize the research findings on the impact of ncRNAs on depression since significant advancements have been made in this area recently. Hence, we methodically outlined the findings of published researches on ncRNAs and depression, focusing on microRNAs. Above all, this review aims to improve our understanding of ncRNAs and provide new insights of the diagnosis and treatment of depression.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Celecoxib, a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agent, was found to be an effective add-on treatment for unipolar and bipolar depression. We investigated the potential beneficial effect of celecoxib monotherapy on depressive symptoms after Coronavirus disease (COVID-19). METHODS This was a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial investigating the therapeutic effects of celecoxib monotherapy in patients with moderate depressive symptoms following COVID-19 infection. Patients were randomized to receive either a celecoxib capsule (100 mg) twice daily or a placebo capsule twice daily for 6 weeks. Participants were assessed with the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HDRS) and the side effect checklist at baseline and weeks 3 and 6. RESULTS A total of 62 patients were included. GLM repeated-measures showed a significant effect of time × treatment (F = 12.95, df = 1.98, p < 0.001) for celecoxib, suggesting superior improvement of depressive symptoms in celecoxib compared to placebo from baseline to the study endpoint. HDRS scores in the celecoxib group showed a greater decline from baseline to both week 3 (t = 4.12, p < 0.001, Cohen's d = 1.10) and week 6 (t = 4.76, p < 0.001, Cohen's d = 1.27), compared to the placebo group. Rate of response to treatment (70% vs 9%, p < 0.001) and remission (67% vs 0%, p < 0.001) was significantly higher in celecoxib compared to the placebo group at week 6. Adverse event frequencies were not significantly different between the two groups. CONCLUSION We demonstrated that treatment with celecoxib significantly improved depression scores of patients with depressive symptoms following COVID-19 infection. Further trials with larger sample sizes and longer study periods should assess our findings before any suggestion for clinical use. The trial was prospectively registered at the Iranian registry of clinical trials (www.irct.ir; registration number: IRCT20090117001556N142).

Abstract
Background: in a recent double-blind, placebo controlled RCT we demonstrated that selective inhibition of cyclo-oxygenase 2 (COX2) is an effective adjunctive strategy in treatment-resistant bipolar depression (TRBDD). To better clarify the mechanisms underlying TRBDD and treatment response, we conducted a retrospective exploratory analysis of the systemic inflammatory response index (SIRI = absolute neutrophils × absolute monocytes/absolute lymphocytes) in relation to other biomarkers and clinical outcomes after escitalopram (ESC), combined with the COX-2 inhibitor, celecoxib (CBX), versus placebo. Methods: Baseline measures of SIRI were compared between TRBDD and healthy controls (HC), and correlated with blood-based inflammatory cytokines, kynurenines, and growth factors. Post-treatment Hamilton Depression Rating Scale 17 (HAMD-17) total scores (clinical outcome) were modelled according to SIRI adjusting for demographics (including relevant interactions with SIRI), baseline depression, treatment arm, and treatment timepoint using multiple linear regression and robust linear mixed effects models. Results: Baseline SIRI did not distinguish TRBDD from HC groups. Baseline SIRI was significantly correlated with lower baseline MCP-1. The relationship between SIRI and HAMD-17 was significant at treatment week 8, in contrast to baseline. Finally, baseline SIRI predicted elevated post-treatment HAMD-17 scores, amongst patients with elevated depression scores at baseline. Significance: High pre-treatment SIRI may predict poorer depressive outcomes amongst TRBDD patients with baseline elevated depression.

Abstract
Inflammatory processes in the brain play a role in acute mania etiopathogenesis. There is little evidence indicating the efficacy of celecoxib adjuvant therapy in treatmenting of manic episodes of bipolar disorder. Therefore, this clinical trial aimed to assess the celecoxib effect on treating acute mania. In a double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, 58 patients meeting the criteria for acute mania were enrolled. After considering eligibility, 45 patients were included in the study and randomly divided into two groups. The first group (23 patients) received sodium valproate 400 mg/day along with celecoxib 400 mg/day, and the second group (22 patients) received sodium valproate 400 mg/day and a placebo. The subjects were evaluated by the Young Mania Rating Scale (YMRS) at the beginning of the study and 9, 18, and 28 days following the initiation of the medication. Evaluation of baseline factors indicated a significant difference in age ( P = 0.01) and psychiatric history ( P = 0.02) between the two groups. However, other factors were similar between groups ( P ≥ 0.05). Comparing the YMRS score between celecoxib and placebo groups revealed no significant difference on days 0, 9, 18, and 28. However, the YMRS score at the end of the study decreased by 16.05 ± 7.65 in the intervention group ( P < 0.001) and 12.50 ± 5.98 in controls ( P < 0.001) compared to the baseline, the trend of change was not significant between the two groups during the time of the study ( F = 0.38; P = 0.84). Although celecoxib adjuvant therapy indicated no considerable side effects, a longer treatment duration may be needed to detect its beneficial effects for treating acute mania in bipolar patients. Trial registration: Iran clinical trial register: IRCT20200306046708N1.

Abstract
The effects of celecoxib on a broad spectrum of mood disorders and on inflammatory parameters have not yet been comprehensively evaluated. The aim of this study was to systematically summarize the available knowledge on this topic. Data from both preclinical and clinical studies were analyzed, considering the efficacy and safety of celecoxib in the treatment of mood disorders, as well as the correlation of inflammatory parameters with the effect of celecoxib treatment. Forty-four studies were included. We found evidence supporting the antidepressant efficacy of celecoxib in a dose of 400 mg/day used for 6 weeks as an add-on treatment in major depression (SMD = -1.12 [95%Cl: -1.71,-0.52], p = 0.0002) and mania (SMD = -0.82 [95% CI:-1.62,-0.01], p = 0.05). The antidepressant efficacy of celecoxib in the above dosage used as sole treatment was also confirmed in depressed patients with somatic comorbidity (SMD = -1.35 [95% CI:-1.95,-0.75], p < 0.0001). We found no conclusive evidence for the effectiveness of celecoxib in bipolar depression. Celecoxib at a dose of 400 mg/d used for up to 12 weeks appeared to be a safe treatment in patients with mood disorders. Although an association between celecoxib response and inflammatory parameters has been found in preclinical studies, this has not been confirmed in clinical trials. Further studies are needed to evaluate the efficacy of celecoxib in bipolar depression, as well as long-term studies evaluating the safety and efficacy of celecoxib in recurrent mood disorders, studies involving treatment-resistant populations, and assessing the association of celecoxib treatment with inflammatory markers.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Anti-inflammation drugs were uncovered to be a potential therapy for depression. Celecoxib as a selective COX2 inhibitor is also one anti-inflammation drugs. Celecoxib is widely used in the clinic, which is well known by medical workers. It is uncertain whether celecoxib has efficacy in improving depression.
AIM To estimate the effect of celecoxib on improving depression.
METHODS All literature was searched until 2022. The databases included PubMed, OVID database, Cochrane library, Web of Science, CNKI, Clinicaltrials.gov database and Wanfang database. The random effects model was used to estimate the standardized mean differences with 95%CIs. With determined diagnostic criteria, studies containing patients with depression in the celecoxib group and the control group were included in the meta-analysis. The primary outcome measures were set for depression scale scores.
RESULTS Twenty-nine randomized controlled studies were included in the meta-analysis (including 847 subjects with depression and 810 control subjects). The meta-analysis showed that celecoxib had an effect of anti-depression. At the same time, heterogeneity was observed (I2 = 82.1%, P = 0.00), and meta-regression was implemented to estimate the source of heterogeneity, which showed that the type of depression scale and depression type may lead to the heterogeneity. Subgroup analysis with respect to depression scale and depression type suggested that depression type was the possible main source of heterogeneity. Moreover, Egger’s test, Begg’s test, funnel plot and Doi plot was implemented, and publication bias was found to be significant. Next, the trim and fill method was used to estimate the influence of publication bias on the outcome of the meta-analysis, which showed that the outcome of the meta-analysis was reliable. Sensitivity analysis was estimated by deleting a study one by one, and the outcome of the meta-analysis was significantly stable. The quality of all randomized controlled trial studies was assessed by risk of bias, which indicated the rank of evidence in the meta-analysis was high.
CONCLUSION Celecoxib could be effective for improving depression.

Abstract
Background Systemic, low-grade immune–inflammatory activity, together with social and neurocognitive performance deficits are a transdiagnostic trait of people suffering from type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and severe mental illnesses (SMIs), such as schizophrenia (SZ), major depressive disorder (MDD), and bipolar disorder (BD). We aimed to determine if immune–inflammatory mediators were significantly altered in people with SMIs or T2DM compared with healthy controls (HC) and whether these biomarkers could help predict their cognition and social functioning 1 year after assessment. Methods We performed a prospective, 1-year follow-up cohort study with 165 participants at baseline (TB), including 30 with SZ, 42 with BD, 35 with MDD, 30 with T2DM, and 28 HC; and 125 at 1-year follow-up (TY), and determined executive domain (ED), global social functioning score (GSFS), and peripheral blood immune–inflammatory and oxidative stress biomarkers. Results Participants with SMIs and T2DM showed increased peripheral levels of inflammatory markers, such as interleukin-10 (p < 0.01; η2p = 0.07) and tumor necrosis factor-α (p < 0.05; η2p = 0.08); and oxidative stress biomarkers, such as reactive oxygen species (ROS) (p < 0.05; η2p = 0.07) and mitochondrial ROS (p < 0.01; η2p = 0.08). The different combinations of the exposed biomarkers anticipated 46–57.3% of the total ED and 23.8–35.7% of GSFS for the participants with SMIs. Limitations Participants' treatment, as usual, was continued without no specific interventions; thus, it was difficult to anticipate substantial changes related to the psychopharmacological pattern. Conclusion People with SMIs show significantly increased levels of peripheral immune–inflammatory biomarkers, which may contribute to the neurocognitive and social deficits observed in SMIs, T2DM, and other diseases with systemic immune–inflammatory activation of chronic development. These parameters could help identify the subset of patients who could benefit from immune–inflammatory modulator strategies to ameliorate their functional outcomes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the preliminary efficacy of a high n-3 plus low n-6 (H3-L6) dietary intervention in improving mood stability in Bipolar Disorder (BD) when compared to dietary intervention with usual U.S. levels of n-6 and n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) intakes (control diet, CD). METHODS This 2-arm, parallel-group, randomized, modified double-blind, controlled 48-week study of 12-week intensive diet intervention in subjects with BD was conducted at a single suburban-rural site in the mid-Atlantic region. Participants with DSM-IV TR BD I or II with hypomanic or depressive symptoms were randomized, stratified on gender (N = 82). The intervention included the provision of group-specific study foods and dietary counseling. Variability of mood symptoms was measured by a twice-daily, 12-week ecological momentary analysis (EMA) paradigm, and group differences were analyzed using multilevel models. Circulating n-3 and n-6 fatty acids were measured at baseline and after 4, 8, and 12 weeks of diet exposure. RESULTS All 82 randomized participants were included in biochemical analyses. Seventy participants completed at least 2 EMA surveys and were included in primary EMA analyses. Variability in mood, energy, irritability, and pain as measured using EMA was reduced in the H3-L6 group compared to the CD group. No significant differences in mean ratings of mood symptoms, or any other symptom measures, were detected. The dietary intervention effect on target PUFAs significantly differed by the group over time. CONCLUSIONS A dietary intervention adjunctive to usual care showed preliminary efficacy in improving variability in mood symptoms in participants with BD.

Abstract
Neuropsychiatric diseases have traditionally been studied from brain, and mind-centric perspectives. However, mounting epidemiological and clinical evidence shows a strong correlation of neuropsychiatric manifestations with immune system activation, suggesting a likely mechanistic interaction between the immune and nervous systems in mediating neuropsychiatric disease. Indeed, immune mediators such as cytokines, antibodies, and complement proteins have been shown to affect various cellular members of the central nervous system in multitudinous ways, such as by modulating neuronal firing rates, inducing cellular apoptosis, or triggering synaptic pruning. These observations have in turn led to the exciting development of clinical therapies aiming to harness this neuro-immune interaction for the treatment of neuropsychiatric disease and symptoms. Besides the clinic, important theoretical fundamentals can be drawn from the immune system and applied to our understanding of the brain and neuropsychiatric disease. These new frameworks could lead to novel insights in the field and further potentiate the development of future therapies to treat neuropsychiatric disease.

Abstract
Psychoneuroimmunology, the area of research dedicated to understanding the fundamental interactions between the central nervous system and the immune system, has given rise to the development of Immunopsychiatry, a new discipline which harnesses the immune system to produce beneficial outcomes for mental health problems. Immunopsychiatry has the potential to become a clinically relevant specialty area in psychiatric practice, but has not yet been adopted by the wider mental health community. This paper aims to map out the future trajectory of Immunopsychiatry on its road towards science-to-policy knowledge translation and clinical implementation. Three critical milestones which will need to be reached in order for Immunopsychiatry to fulfil its promise for clinical innovation are discussed: a clear definition of patients who fall within the immunopsychiatric continuum; demonstration of well-defined clinical benefit and incorporation in clinical guidelines; and convergence with other paradigms in biological psychiatry.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mood stabilizers with disparate chemical structures are approved for treating bipolar disorder, but their mechanisms of action are not agreed on. However, when administered to unanesthetized rats at clinically relevant doses, they modulate neurotransmission involving arachidonic acid and brain activity of COX-2, which oxidizes arachidonic acid within the arachidonic acid metabolic cascade. HYPOTHESIS Inhibiting COX-2 directly might enhance mood stabilizer effects in bipolar disorder patients. OBSERVATIONS This paper reviews randomized controlled trials that showed that celecoxib, a selective COX-2 inhibitor, or low-dose aspirin, which inhibits COX-1 and inhibits/acetylates COX-2, reduced bipolar symptoms in patients on mood stabilizers. More convincing are two population based pharmacoepidemiological studies that each demonstrated that chronic low dose aspirin reduced bipolar severity markers in patients on mood stabilizers. CONCLUSIONS This clinical evidence is consistent with the hypothesis that low-dose chronic aspirin and celecoxib, which can inhibit COX-2 and enter brain, can be repurposed in bipolar disorder to enhance mood stabilizer effects on arachidonic acid metabolism and neurotransmission.

Abstract
The biological bases of bipolar disorder include aspects related, among others, to neurohormonal pathways, neurotransmission, signal transduction, regulation of gene expression, oxidative stress, neuroplasticity, and changes in the immune system. There is still a gap in understanding its complex neurobiology and, consequently, developing new treatments. Multiple factors probably interact in this complex equation of pathophysiology of bipolar disorder, such as genetic, biochemical, psychosocial, and environmental stress events, correlating with the development and severity of the bipolar disorder. These mechanisms can interact to exacerbate inflammation, impair neurogenesis, and increase oxidative stress damage, cellular mitochondrial dysfunction, changes in neurotrophins and in epigenetic mechanisms, neuroendocrine dysfunction, activation of neuronal death pathways, and dysfunction in neurotransmission systems. In this review, we explore the up-to-date knowledge of the neurobiological underpinnings of bipolar disorders. The difficulty in developing new drugs for bipolar disorder is very much associated with the lack of knowledge about the precise pathophysiology of this disorder. Pharmacological treatment for bipolar patients is vital; to progress to effective medications, it is essential to understand the neurobiology in bipolar patients better and identify novel therapeutic targets.

Abstract
Bipolar disorder (BD) is a chronic and cyclic mental disorder, characterized by unusual mood swings between mania/hypomania and depression, raising concern in both scientific and medical communities due to its deleterious social and economic impact. Polypharmacy is the rule due to the partial effectiveness of available drugs. Disease course is often unremitting, resulting in frequent cognitive deficits over time. Despite all research efforts in identifying BD-associated molecular mechanisms, current knowledge remains limited. However, the involvement of inflammation in BD pathophysiology is increasingly consensual, with the immune system and neuroinflammation playing a key role in disease course. Evidence includes altered levels of cytokines and acute-phase proteins, pathological microglial activation, deregulation of Nrf2-Keap1 system and changes in biogenic amines neurotransmitters, whose expression is regulated by TNF-α, a pro-inflammatory cytokine highly involved in BD, pointing out inflammation as a novel and attractive therapeutic target for BD. As result, new therapeutic agents including non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, N-acetylcysteine and GSK3 inhibitors have been incorporated in BD treatment. Taking into consideration the latest pre-clinical and clinical trials, in this review we discuss recent data regarding inflammation in BD, unveiling potential therapeutic approaches through direct or indirect modulation of inflammatory response.

Abstract
Bipolar disorder (BD) is a mood psychiatric disorder described by changes between depressive, hypomanic, or manic episodes. The aimed of the present study was evaluated possible changes in the AA pathway in BD through a systematic review of observational studies. A search in the electronic databases was proceeded, on Cochrane Library, MEDLINE, EMBASE, PsycINFO, Google Scholar and the British Library for studies published until August 2020. A search strategy was developed using the terms: "Bipolar Disorder" and "Phospholipase A2" or "Arachidonic Acids" or "Cyclooxygenase 2" or "Prostaglandins E" as text words and Medical Subject Headings (i.e., MeSH and EMTREE). Seven primary studies were included in the systematic review, with a total of 246 BD patients, 20 depression patients, and 425 heathy controls (HC). The studies showed contradictory results in the AA and PLA2, no primary articles with COX and PGE2 assessments were included in this review. According to the Newcastle-Ottawa quality score scale (NOS), our systematic review presented high quality. The investigation of the inflammatory pathway of AA still needs further investigation and evidence, given the growing number of studies suggesting the efficacy of anti-inflammatory drugs as adjunctive therapy in the pharmacological treatment of BD.

Abstract
The similarities between the depressive symptoms of Major Depressive Disorders (MDD) and Bipolar Disorders (BD) suggest these disorders have some commonality in their molecular pathophysiologies, which is not apparent from the risk genes shared between MDD and BD. This is significant, given the growing literature suggesting that changes in non-coding RNA may be important in both MDD and BD, because they are causing dysfunctions in the control of biochemical pathways that are affected in both disorders. Therefore, understanding the changes in non-coding RNA in MDD and BD will lead to a better understanding of how and why these disorders develop. Furthermore, as a significant number of individuals suffering with MDD and BD do not respond to medication, identifying non-coding RNA that are altered by the drugs used to treat these disorders offer the potential to identify biomarkers that could predict medication response. Such biomarkers offer the potential to quickly identify patients who are unlikely to respond to traditional medications so clinicians can refocus treatment strategies to ensure more effective outcomes for the patient. This review will focus on the evidence supporting the involvement of non-coding RNA in MDD and BD and their potential use as biomarkers for treatment response.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Studies in unanesthetized rats suggest that mood stabilizers approved for treating bipolar disorder downregulate brain arachidonic acid (AA) metabolism. AA plays a role in neurotransmission and neuroinflammation, among other processes. Other drugs that reduce brain AA metabolism may add to mood stabilizer action. METHODS We reviewed randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and population studies to examine whether celecoxib, a selective cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 inhibitor, and acetylsalicylate (aspirin), a COX-1 and COX-2 inhibitor and acetylator, were useful in bipolar disorder patients on mood stabilizers. COX-1 and COX-2 metabolize AA to bioactive eicosanoids. RESULTS Celecoxib significantly enhanced mood stabilizer efficacy in two 6-week RCTs involving 86 manic bipolar inpatients, and in one 8-week RCT on 49 patients with treatment-resistant bipolar depression. With regard to aspirin, a Dutch pharmacoepidemiological study involving 5145 subjects taking lithium reported symptom reduction with added chronic low dose 30-80 mg/day aspirin, while a Danish study on 321,350 subjects taking chronic 75-150 mg/day aspirin found fewer manic episodes than in subjects not on aspirin. Finally, a recent 6-week RCT using low-dose aspirin and/or minocycline showed a specific positive effect of aspirin. CONCLUSIONS Efficacy of both celecoxib and aspirin as adjuncts to mood stabilizers in the treatment of bipolar disorder is consistent with the AA hypothesis for mood stabilizer action in that disorder.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bipolar Disorder (BD) is a chronic psychiatric disorder characterized by mood disturbances that include depressive, manic, and hypomanic episodes. Despite the severity of the symptoms, there is still a gap in the literature on the precise neurobiology and treatment of BD. The investigations of inflammatory changes in BD has increased in the last decade, evincing the importance of its role in the pathophysiology of the disorder. The present study aimed to investigate the inflammatory role in BD, through the evaluation of biomarkers and their relation to biological rhythms. METHODS It was conducted a case-control study that included 36 BD and 46 healthy controls (HC). The Cyclooxygenase 2 (COX-2) enzyme, Arachidonic Acid (AA), interleukins (IL) IL-4, IL-5, IL-6, IL-10, IL-33, and Tumor Necrosis Factor Alpha (TNF-α) in the serum of individuals. It also was administered the Biological Rhythm Interview of Assessment in Neuropsychiatry (BRIAN) to the BD and healthy control groups. RESULTS The results indicated that the individuals with BD showed increased COX-2, AA, IL-6, and TNF-α levels in comparison to the HC without psychiatric disorders, as well as significant commitments in all domains evaluated by BRIAN. LIMITATIONS Uncontrolled pharmacotherapy used by the included bipolar participants, which had important effects on participants' inflammatory systems and the lack of cases with bipolar manic episodes. CONCLUSIONS The results of the present study reaffirm that inflammation has an important role in BD, as well as the significant changes in biological rhythms. It is still necessary to better characterize the inflammatory pathway of AA.

Abstract
Carbonic anhydrase is a ubiquitous metalloenzyme that catalyzes the reversible interconversion of CO2/HCO3-. Equilibrium of these species is maintained by the action of carbonic anhydrase. Recent advances in magnetic resonance spectroscopy have allowed, for the first time, in vivo characterization of carbonic anhydrase in the human brain. In this article, we review the theories and techniques of in vivo 13C magnetization (saturation) transfer magnetic resonance spectroscopy as they are applied to measuring the rate of exchange between CO2 and HCO3- catalyzed by carbonic anhydrase. Inhibitors of carbonic anhydrase have a wide range of therapeutic applications. Role of carbonic anhydrases and their inhibitors in many diseases are also reviewed to illustrate future applications of in vivo carbonic anhydrase assessment by magnetic resonance spectroscopy.
