Human platelet MAO in drug-free and medicated schizophrenic patients
Abstract
The authors compared platelet monoamine oxidase activity in drug-free chronic and acute schizophrenic patients, medicated chronic schizophrenic patients, and normal controls. A significant decrement in MAO activity was found only in medicated chronic schizophrenic patients. The possible mechanism for this finding is discussed.
