Higher mean serum S100B levels were associated with the risk G allele of rs3788266 in BPAD cases (P = 0.0001), unaffected relatives of BPAD cases (P < 0.0001) and unrelated controls (P < 0.0001).

These genes include GRM7, previously associated to major depression disorder and bipolar disorder, SLC6A13, in anxiety disorders, and S100B, SSTR5 and COMT in schizophrenia.
Fine-mapping analyses of 21q22 have previously identified transient receptor potential gene melastatin 2 (TRPM2), which is 2 Mb upstream of S100B, as a possible BPAD susceptibility gene at 21q22.
