Regardless of the recent advancements in biological research in psychiatry, the aspect of early psychopathology remains underrepresented. Due to the high level of heterogeneity and co-morbidity observed in depressive disorders, the identification of phenotypes based on biological markers could enhance the prediction of disease trajectories. This approach would improve diagnostic accuracy and facilitate the selection of personalised treatments from the outset. We aim to identify plasma proteins and systemic physiological alterations associated with depression in adolescents.<\/p><p>Using plasma samples from adolescent outpatients participating in the SMART cohort (n=103) and healthy adolescents in the PANIC cohort (n=53), global proteomics data were generated by using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. Linear and elastic net regression modelling were used to identify differences in plasma proteins, adjusted by age and sex, between depressed (MDD) and healthy (HC) adolescents. Additionally, functional enrichment and clustering analyses were performed to identify altered biological processes and potential sub-phenotypes, respectively. Global plasma proteomics as a holistic approach shows potential in identifying protein signatures associated with adolescent-onset depression. This study provides insights into the complex biological networks underlying the physiology of mental health.<\/p><p>This research has received funding from the Equal-Life project, funded by European Union\u2019s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 874724, and personal working grants (Piironen, AK) from the Finnish Cultural Foundation and Yrj\u00f6 Jahnsson Foundation.<\/p>                        <\/div>\n\n                    <\/div>\n\n                <\/div><!-- .elementskit-card END -->\n\n                \n                <div class=\"elementskit-card \">\n                    <div class=\"elementskit-card-header\" id=\"primaryHeading-1-00fea3f\">\n                        <a href=\"#collapse-5ceda446a14f2aeac30d\" class=\"ekit-accordion--toggler elementskit-btn-link collapsed\" data-ekit-toggle=\"collapse\" data-target=\"#Collapse-5ceda446a14f2aeac30d\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"Collapse-5ceda446a14f2aeac30d\">\n                            \n                            <span class=\"ekit-accordion-title\">Short Bio<\/span>\n\n                            \n                                <div class=\"ekit_accordion_icon_group\">\n                                    <div class=\"ekit_accordion_normal_icon\">\n                                        <!-- Normal Icon -->\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<i class=\"icon icon-down-arrow1\"><\/i>                                    <\/div>\n\n                                    <div class=\"ekit_accordion_active_icon\">\n                                        <!-- Active Icon -->\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<i class=\"icon icon-up-arrow\"><\/i>                                    <\/div>\n                                <\/div>\n\n                            \n                                                    <\/a>\n                    <\/div>\n\n                    <div id=\"Collapse-5ceda446a14f2aeac30d\" class=\" collapse\" aria-labelledby=\"primaryHeading-1-00fea3f\" data-parent=\"#accordion-6a14f2aeac30d\">\n\n                        <div class=\"elementskit-card-body ekit-accordion--content\">\n                            <p>Aino-Kaisa Piironen is a data science-oriented doctoral researcher at\u00a0the University of Eastern Finland\u00a0with a\u00a0background\u00a0in molecular medicine.
