description | OBJECTIVES/GOALS: 22q.11 deletion syndrome (22q11DS) is a genomic syndrome that elevates risk for psychosis >20-fold. We used a battery of cognitive and psychophysiological psychosis-risk biomarkers in 22q11DS patients and healthy subjects in order to identify biomarkers of psychosis in 22q11DS that could be used as translational targets in intervention studies. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: We recruited 15 22q11DS individuals (Mean age=30, M/F=9/6) and 19 healthy controls (HCs; Mean age=34, M/F=5/14). Each individual completed the MATRICS Consensus Cognitive Battery (MCCB), the Wechsler Abbreviated Scale of Intelligence, Second edition (WASI-II) Verbal IQ subtests, and the computerized Wisconsin Card Sorting Task (WCST). To examine auditory EEG responses, each participant completed the 'Double-Deviant' target detection paradigm, which presents a pseudorandom sequence of frequent standard tones and infrequent deviant tones. Mismatch negativity (MMN) metrics were generated from this assessment. Welch's t-tests were completed for neurocognitive variables. One-Way ANOVAs were completed to examine EEG results, with sex entered as a separate factor and age entered as a covariate. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: Significant group differences were found in 8 of the 9 neurocognitive measurements (FDR-adjusted p's< 0.02, average Cohen's d=1.62, average observed power= 0.91) indicating widespread cognitive deficits in 22q11DS subjects across multiple domains. The Double-Deviant MMN ERP response was significantly smaller in absolute magnitude in the 22q11DS group (FDR-adjusted p=0.048, Cohen’s d= -0.864, observed power= 0.58). The MMN ERPs for the frequency and duration deviants were not significantly different (FDR-adjusted p's> 0.33). No group by sex interactions were observed in any of the measures. Neurocognitive variables were associated with psychosis positive, negative, general, and disorganized symptom scales. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE: Our results identify potential psychosis-risk biomarkers in 22q11DS. If replicated, these biomarkers could provide important translational targets for future clinical trials for individuals with 22q11DS and other individuals at-risk for psychosis syndromes. |
