Glutamate/GABA+ ratio is associated with the psychosocial domain of autistic and schizotypal traits.

PloS one - 1 Jan 2017

Ford Talitha C, Nibbs Richard, Crewther David P

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The autism and schizophrenia spectra overlap to a large degree in the social and interpersonal domains. Similarly, abnormal excitatory glutamate and inhibitory γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) neurotransmitter concentrations have been reported for both spectra, with the interplay of these neurotransmitters important for cortical excitation to inhibition regulation. This study investigates whether these...
