RESEARCH INTERESTS §
Liverpool Since
appointed, I have pursued my interest in the neuroscience’s, and the
biological aspects of psychiatric disorders: biochemical, neuroendocrine and
psychopharmacological aspects of depression and dementia. I have also developed an interest in
brain imaging techniques and molecular biology. o
Biochemical and Neuroendocrine studies in
depression. o
Peripheral biochemistry of depression o
Investigations of peripheral biochemical markers
on platelets and of the effects of antidepressants and ECT. o
Neuroendocrinology of depression and Alzheimer's
disease o
Cortisol and Dexamethasone Suppression Tests in
the diagnosis of depression; Tryptophan Infusion Test; Growth Hormone
response to Clonidine stimulation; Neuroendocrine studies in early dementia,
depression, alcoholism, and anorexia nervosa (hormonal responses to
hypothalamic releasing factors stimulation): o
Imaging Techniques o
Brain Imaging Single - photon emission
tomography in the diagnosis of dementia and depression in collaboration
with Dr. M. Critchley, Dept. of Nuclear Physics. NMR imaging and spectroscopy in dementia and
functional psychoses (in collaboration with Professor R. Edwards at the
Magnetic Resonance Research Center, University of Liverpool). o
Radiorenography in the investigation of
renal toxicity in Lithium treated patients. o
Two WHO collaborative studies o
Leaving investigator of the WHO World
collaborative study of dexamethasone suppression test in depression (13
Centers from 12 Countries): study completed and report written jointly with
Professor M. Gastpar (Essen, Germany) on behalf of the WHO Biological
Psychiatry group. o
Molecular biology of
depression. o
Use of lithium therapy every other day. o

- behavioral psychotherapy versus supportive psychotherapy in conjunction
with Lithium or placebo in the prophylaxis of depression in old age
(completed). o

RESEARCH GROUPS
I lead
two research groups: §
Biological Psychiatry Group o
This multi disciplinary group is concerned with biochemical,
psychopharma-cological and neuroendocrine studies in
depression. The team
includes: Dr. A. George, Senior
Lecturer in Pharmacology, Liverpool Polytechnic; Dr. K. Wilson and Dr. A.
Anderson, Consultant Psychogeriatricians; Drs. Lovett and Upadhyaya,
Lecturers in Psychiatry; Dr. T. Lock, Senior Registrar in Biological
Psychiatry; Drs. R. Pathak, J. Collins and R. Burns, Research Senior
Assistants in Psychopharmacology; Drs. H. Sajjad and M. Satish, Research
Registrars; Mr. J. Swainston, Laboratory Technician; Miss. Suzanne Leigh,
Research Psychologist. o
The group's work follows on the work I carried
out at the MRC Brain Metabolism Unit in Edinburgh and the MRC Neuropsychiatry
Laboratory in Epsom, into the biology of depression. My previous work has contributed to
the establishment of peripheral biochemical markers of depression and the
development of the dexamethasone suppression test (DST) as a useful aid in
the management of depression culminating in a WHO World Collaborative Study
of the DST, involving Centers in 12 Countries. My work on lithium therapy has also established the
minimal effective/safe dose for prophylaxis with the first double-blind trial
of lower dose lithium as well as the determination of predictive clinical,
psychological and biological factors of response to prophylactic
lithium. We have completed
several studies on peripheral biochemical markers of depression and
investigated their relationships to clinical response as well as investigations
of hypothalamic pituitary function in depression in refinement of the
existing neuroendocrine diagnostic tests. §
Dementia Study Group o
The group works in close collaboration with the
Epidemiological Diagnostic Group funded by the MRC and directed by Professor
J.R.M. Copeland and is concerned with planning and undertaking biological
studies in dementia including neurophysiology (brain imaging, CT scan,
SPECT and NMR Imaging and Spectroscopy), neuroendocrinology,
neurochemistry and neuropathology.
A major aim is to determine ante-mortem markers for Alzheimer's
disease by the study of early cases from the community study followed
up to post-mortem.
Members of the group include: o
Professor J.R.M. Copeland, Head of Dept. of
Psychiatry, University of Liverpool. o
Dr. A. George, Senior Lecturer in Pharmacology,
Liverpool Polytechnic. o
Dr. K. Wilson, Senior Lecturer in Psychiatry of
Old Age. o
Dr. P. Saunders, Research Fellow in Psychiatry,
Co-ordinator of the Epidemiological Study. o
Dr. A. Upadhyaya, Lecturer in Psychiatry. o
Dr. T. Lock, Senior Registrar in Biological
Psychiatry. o
Dr. R. Burns, Research Senior Registrar. o
The
group has completed studies using SPECT in dementia and depression of
old age and is in the front-line of research on MRI image analysis and
magnetic resonance spectroscopy in collaboration with Professor R. Edwards at
the Magnetic Resonance Research Center.
The current work includes the investigation of physiological
dysfunction and neuronal loss in healthy depressed and demented elderly using
a non-invasive magnetic resonance image analysis technique. §
Outcome of Depression in the Elderly
Study Group o
This is a newly formed group with the aim of
undertaking short and long-term studies of outcome of depression in a
community-based sample of elderly persons with case depression derived from
MRC incidence study. The study
involves clinical, social, psychological and therapeutic studies on a cohort
of 300 individuals. Dr. K. Wilson
will be chairing this group during my absence on sabbatical leave with the
membership of Professor J.R.M. Copeland, Dr. P. Saunders and Mr. M. Dewey. §
Molecular Biology Study Group o
We have a developing collaborative group with
Professor P. Rudland, Professor of Biochemistry in the University, with plans
to investigate the molecular biology of dementia and the functional
psychoses. There is an ongoing
collaborative study with the WHO biological section on the molecular biology
of manic depressive illness. We
have identified large pedigrees of patients with functional psychosis for
these studies. §
UAE University o
Initiated research programs in drug misuse,
psychiatry in primary care, post-partum psychiatric illness, brain imaging
studies, biochemical studies in depression and molecular genetics. q
