Article Synopsis
- Recent research indicates that schizophrenia may be linked to abnormalities in myelin-oligodendrocytes, but there has been limited investigation into this area within the brains of those with the disease.
- This study evaluated the expression of myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG) in postmortem brain tissue from 10 schizophrenia patients and 9 control subjects, focusing on the superior temporal gyrus and hippocampus.
- Results showed significantly lower MOG expression and fiber structure thickness in long-term schizophrenia patients, suggesting that these brain changes may contribute to the progression of the disorder.
