Bipolar Disorder Clinical Trial
Official title:
Study Oxygenating the Brain With Laser Therapy to Increase Mental Functioning in Bipolar Disorder
Investigating the application of transcranial infrared laser stimulation in individuals with bipolar disorder.
Individuals with bipolar disorder have progressive cognitive decline with repeated mood episodes. This cognitive dysfunction is associated with decreased prefrontal cortex oxygen metabolism, involving cellular respiration in mitochondria. Transcranial infrared laser stimulation (TILS) of the prefrontal cortex uses a near-infrared wavelength of invisible light that penetrates the cortex and improves the ability of mitochondria to use oxygen in the brain. This new technology has been proven safe and is a non-pharmacologic, portable, convenient, and cost-effective form of modulating brain oxygenation using low-level infrared light. This treatment has shown great potential by improving cognitive and mood functioning in controlled human studies by photoactivation of the terminal enzyme in the mitochondrial respiratory chain called cytochrome oxidase (CCO). This mechanism results in unique functional benefits for neurons by stimulating oxygen metabolism. Since bipolar disorder may involve mitochondrial metabolic abnormalities, TILS is a potentially promising intervention. The investigators propose a study among individuals with bipolar disorder in order to 1) elucidate the physiological mechanisms of TILS using non-invasive neuroimaging methods (fNIRS, fMRI and ASL-MRI), and 2) investigate the benefits on people's cognitive functions and symptoms after TILS. This is open label clinical trial with a single group assignment to treatment for individuals with bipolar disorder. The investigators will investigate if transcranial infrared laser stimulation (TILS) can upregulate brain activity and improve cognition. ;
