The loss of self-boundaries: towards a neuromolecular theory of schizophrenia.

Bio Systems - 1 Dec 2003

Mitterauer B J

Abstract excerpt

I start out with the hypothesis that the basic symptoms of schizophrenia are caused by a loss of self-boundaries. Phenomenologically, schizophrenic symptoms are based on the inability of the brain to delimit conceptual boundaries. At the cellular level in the brain, I have in previous work attributed a spatio-temporal boundary setting function to the glial cells such that glial cells determine the grouping of...
