In view of its heterogeneity, schizophrenia needs new diagnostic tools based on mechanistic biomarkers that would allow early detection. Complex interaction between genetic and environmental risk factors may lead to NMDAR hypofunction, inflammation and redox dysregulation, all converging on oxidative stress. Using computational analysis, the expres...
Research in schizophrenia (SZ) emphasizes the need for new therapeutic approaches based on antioxidant/anti-inflammatory compounds and psycho-social therapy. A hallmark of SZ is a dysfunction of parvalbumin-expressing fast-spiking interneurons (PVI), which are essential for neuronal synchrony during sensory/cognitive processing. Oxidative stress an...
Various mechanisms involved in schizophrenia pathophysiology, such as dopamine dysregulation, glutamate/NMDA receptor dysfunction, neuroinflammation or redox imbalance, all appear to converge towards an oxidative stress “hub” affecting parvalbumine interneurones (PVI) and their perineuronal nets (PNN) (Lancet Psychiatry. 2015;2:258–70); (Nat Rev Ne...
