Increased CSF amino acids and ventricular enlargement in schizophrenia: a preliminary study.

Reveley MA, De Belleroche J, Recordati A, Hirsch SR.

Abstract

We found significantly higher levels of cerebrospinal fluid alanine, glycine, leucine, and phenylalanine in schizophrenic patients compared to healthy controls. Ventricular enlargement was present in 4 of 11 schizophrenics, and elevated CSF alanine was highly correlated with ventricular enlargement. The implications of these findings are discussed.
