Obtain phenotypic data and a DNA/blood sample from mood disorder patients undergoing pioglitazone or quetiapine XR treatment as a part of an IRB approved clinical trial conducted at the Mood Disorders Program. Pioglitazone treatment is examined in metabolic syndrome comorbid with bipolar depression (IRB # 07-08-24) and unipolar depression (IRB # 07-07-20). Quetiapine XR treatment is examined in generalized anxiety disorder comorbid with bipolar depression (IRB # 10-06-19) and unipolar depression (IRB # 12-01-29). Please refer to the respective IRB protocols for more information.
