Abstract: Previous evidence suggests that α2-adrenoceptors (α2-AR) may be involved in the pathophysiology of schizophrenia. However, postmortem brain studies on α2-AR expression and functionality in schizophrenia are scarce. The aim of our work was to evaluate… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.schres.2020.11.053
Abstract: Imaging and postmortem studies indicate that schizophrenia subjects exhibit abnormal connectivity in several white matter tracts, including the cingulum bundle. Copper chelators given to experimental animals damage myelin and myelin-producing oligodendrocytes, and the substantia nigra… read more here.
