Abstract
Despite a very high prevalence and substantial impairments among affected individuals, treatment-resistant schizophrenia (TRS) has not been sufficiently researched in clinical research in the field of psychiatric disorders and the pathophysiology is still poorly understood. A better clinical and pathophysiological understanding of this heterogeneous and severely affected population of people with persistent symptoms in different domains is necessary in order not only to be able to intervene early but also to develop novel therapeutic strategies or individualized treatment approaches. This review article presents the state of the art criteria of the pharmacological TRS, neurobiological disease models and predictive factors for TRS as well as the phenomenon of pseudo-treatment resistance and the clinical management of TRS. In the future, not only the use of operationalized criteria and definitions of TRS in longitudinal studies and randomized-controlled trials (RCTs) are paramount, but also the observation of trajectories with the integration of multimodal longitudinal phenotyping and the longitudinal collection of clinical routine data in academic research, which will be possible in the newly created German Center for Mental Health (DZPG).

Abstract
Schizophrenia (SCZ) is a genetically heterogenous psychiatric disorder of highly polygenic nature. Correlative evidence from genetic studies indicate that the aggregated effects of distinct genetic risk factor combinations found in each patient converge onto common molecular mechanisms. To prove this on a functional level, we employed a reductionistic cellular model system for polygenic risk by differentiating induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) from 104 individuals with high polygenic risk load and controls into cortical glutamatergic neurons (iNs). Multi-omics profiling identified widespread differences in alternative polyadenylation (APA) in the 3' untranslated region of many synaptic transcripts between iNs from SCZ patients and healthy donors. On the cellular level, 3'APA was associated with a reduction in synaptic density of iNs. Importantly, differential APA was largely conserved between postmortem human prefrontal cortex from SCZ patients and healthy donors, and strongly enriched for transcripts related to synapse biology. 3'APA was highly correlated with SCZ polygenic risk and affected genes were significantly enriched for SCZ associated common genetic variation. Integrative functional genomic analysis identified the RNA binding protein and SCZ GWAS risk gene PTBP2 as a critical trans-acting factor mediating 3'APA of synaptic genes in SCZ subjects. Functional characterization of PTBP2 in iNs confirmed its key role in 3'APA of synaptic transcripts and regulation of synapse density. Jointly, our findings show that the aggregated effects of polygenic risk converge on 3'APA as one common molecular mechanism that underlies synaptic impairments in SCZ.
