    Abstract Introduction: Few animal models address the characteristics of the longitudinal course of bipolar disorder. However, behavioral sensitization (to recurrent stressors and psychomotor stimulants) and kindling of seizures both provide clues to mechanisms in the progressive course of bipolar disorder.
    Methods: We describe aspects of bipolar illness that show sensitization and kindling-like increases reactivity to the recurrence of stressors, mood episodes, and bouts of substance abuse. Mechanisms of these events and clinical implications for treatment are discussed.
    Results: Early life stress is a risk factor for the development of episodes of unipolar depression and bipolar disorder and the acquisition of substance abuse. Initial affective episodes are often triggered by the recurrence of psychosocial stressors in adulthood, but after many episodes have occurred, episodes may also begin to emerge spontaneously in a kindling-like progression. More prior episodes are associated with faster recurrences, dysfunction, disability, frontal cortical abnormalities, cognitive impairment, shorter telomeres, treatment refractoriness, and an increased risk of a diagnosis of dementia in old age. Sensitization to stressors, episodes, and substances of abuse each appear driven by epigenetic mechanisms and their accumulation on DNA, histones, and microRNA. Patients with bipolar illness in the USA are more ill than those from Europe and experience more sensitization to stressors, episodes, substance abuse, as well as more genetic vulnerability across four generations.
    Discussion: The sensitization and kindling models highlight the importance of early intervention and prevention in order to limit or halt the downhill progression of bipolar disorder and its multiple comorbidities toward treatment refractoriness. Clinical data support this conclusion as well but have not been sufficient to change practice in the direction of early intervention. It is hoped that a better understanding of sensitization and kindling-like mechanisms will add neurobiological rationales for the importance of prevention and sustained prophylactic intervention in rendering bipolar disorder a more benign illness.

    Abstract There is increasing recognition that, in a high percentage of cases, bipolar disorder is a progressive illness. Multiple types of sensitization (or increased reactivity to repetition of the same stimulus) drive illness progression. One of the clearest is that of episode sensitization, where increased numbers of prior episodes are associated with: faster recurrences; more dysfunction; disability; social, educational, and employment deficits; suicide; medical comorbidities; cognitive dysfunction; and an increased incidence of dementia in old age. Repetition of stressors and bouts of substance abuse can also result in sensitization. Each type of sensitization appears to have an epigenetic basis, such that preventing sensitization should minimize the accumulation of adverse epigenetic chemical marks on DNA, histones, and microRNA. New data emphasize the importance of early, consistent intervention after an initial manic episode. The cognitive dysfunction associated with a first episode improves only if there are no further episode recurrences during the next year. A randomized study has also shown that comprehensive multimodal prophylactic intervention for 2 years leads to improvements in illness course extending over a total of 6 years. Intensive treatment of the earliest stages of bipolar disorder can thus exert lasting positive effects on the course of illness.
