Abstract excerpt
Patients with schizophrenia exhibit decreased neuregulin 1 (NRG1)-stimulated AKT phosphorylation in peripheral lymphoblasts. Here, we examined this peripheral marker in monozygotic twins discordant for schizophrenia and in healthy monozygotic twins without psychiatric disorders. B lymphoblasts were stimulated with NRG1a (65 amino-acid residue recombinant protein from the epidermal growth factor [EGF] domain) for...
