Abstract: Major depressive disorder (MDD) is one of the most disabling illnesses that profoundly restricts psychosocial functions and impairs quality of life. However, the treatment rate of MDD is surprisingly low because the availability and acceptability of appropriate treatments are limited. Therefore, identifying whether and how treatment delay affects the brain and the initial time point of the alterations is imperative, but these changes have not been thoroughly explored. We investigated the functional and structural alterations of MDD for different durations of untreated illness (DUI) using regional homogeneity (ReHo) and voxel-based morphometry (VBM) with a sample of 125 treatment-naïve MDD patients and 100 healthy controls (HCs). The MDD patients were subgrouped based on the DUI, namely, DUI ≤ 1 M, 1 < DUI ≤ 6 M, 6 < DUI ≤ 12 M, and 12 < DUI ≤ 48 M. Subgroup comparison (MDD with different DUIs) was applied to compare ReHo and grey matter volume (GMV) extracted from clusters of regions with significant differences (the pooled MDD patients relative to HCs). Correlations and mediation effects were analysed to estimate the relationships between the functional and structural neuroimaging changes and clinical characteristics. MDD patients exhibited decreased ReHo in the left postcentral gyrus and precentral gyrus and reduced GMV in the left middle frontal gyrus and superior frontal gyrus relative to HCs. The initial functional abnormalities were detected after being untreated for 1 month, whereas this duration was 3 months for GMV reduction. Nevertheless, a transient increase in ReHo was observed after being untreated for 3 months. No significant differences were discovered between HCs and MDD patients with a DUI less than 1 month or among MDD patients with different DUIs in either ReHo or GMV. Longer DUI was related to reduced ReHo with GMV as mediator in MDD patients. We identified disassociated functional and anatomical alterations in treatment-naïve MDD patients at different time points in distinct brain regions at the early stage of the disease. Additionally, we also discovered that GMV mediated the relationship between a longer DUI and diminished ReHo in MDD patients, disclosing the latent deleterious and neuro-progressive implications of DUI on both the structure and function of the brain and indicating the necessity of early treatment of MDD.
