Biomarker for depression, method for measuring biomarker for depression, computer program, and storage medium

摘要

The present invention provides biomarkers for diagnosing depression. Specifically, using one or more compounds selected from the group consisting of ADP-RIBOSE, ATP, ADP, AMP, serotonin, tryptophan, kynurenine, SDMA(symmetricdimethylarginine), threonine, glyceric acid, serine, N-acetylaspartic acid, glutamic acid, trigonelline, creatine, 2-methyl serine, sphingosine, homovanillic acid, piperidine, sulfoxidated methionine, pipecolic acid, sphinganine, ³-butyrobetaine, guanidoacetic acid, isobutyric acid, creatinine, sarcosine, 3-methyl butyric acid, nicotinamide, betaine, ornithine, carnitine, ethanolamine, phosphoethanolamine, taurine, hypotaurine, aspartic acid, methionine, tyrosine, phosphorylcholine, arginine, asparagine, 3-aminobutyric acid, ²-alanine, phenylalanine, lysine, phosphocreatine, alanine, uric acid, choline, isocitric acid, leucine, malic acid, aminoadipic acid, tyramine, valine, glucaric acid, histidine, ADMA (asymmetric dimethylarginine), isoleucine, hydroxyproline and cystathionine as a biomarker for diagnosis, a content of the biomarker in a collected blood sample is measured to diagnose depression.
