We here present data on immune gene expression of chemokines, chemokine receptors, cytokines and regulatory T-cell (T-reg) markers in chronic patients suffering from either schizophrenia (SCZ, N=20) or bipolar disorder (BD=20) compared with healthy controls (HCs, N=20). extracted RNA peripheral blood mononuclear cells performed real-time (RT)-PCR to measure mRNA levels T-reg markers. All the analyses were Bonferroni-corrected. The classical monocyte activation (M1) il6, ccl3 significantly...
Perlini C, Marini A, Garzitto M, Isola Cerruti S, Marinelli V, Rambaldelli G, Ferro Tomelleri L, Dusi N, Bellani Tansella Fabbro F, Brambilla P. Linguistic production and syntactic comprehension in schizophrenia bipolar disorder. Objective: To explore linguistic abilities Specifically, the aims of this study were to: i) investigate microlinguistic (lexicon, morphology, syntax) macrolinguistic (discourse coherence, pragmatics) dimensions speech ii) evaluate skills both Method: performance 30...
Background Abnormalities in incentive decision making, typically assessed using the Iowa Gambling Task (IGT), have been reported both schizophrenia (SZ) and bipolar disorder (BD). We applied Expectancy–Valence (E–V) model to determine whether motivational, cognitive response selection component processes of IGT performance are differentially affected SZ BD. Method Performance on was 280 individuals comprising 70 remitted patients with SZ, BD 140 age-, sex- IQ-matched healthy individuals....
Background Hippocampal shrinkage is commonly reported in schizophrenia, but its role the illness still poorly understood. In particular, it unclear how clinical and psychosocial variables relate to hippocampal volumes. Aims To investigate neuroanatomic differences hippocampus using three-dimensional (3D) computational image analysis. Method We used high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging surface-based modelling map 3D profile of adults with schizophrenia ( n =67) a healthy control group =...
Abstract Structural and functional studies have shown that schizophrenia is often associated with frontolimbic abnormalities in the prefrontal mediotemporal regions. It still unclear, however, if such dysfunctional interaction extends as well to relay regions thalamus anterior insula. Here, we measured gray matter volumes of five right‐hemisphere 68 patients 77 matched healthy subjects. The were amygdala, thalamus, entorhinal cortex (identified anomalous by prior on same population)...
Several, although not all, of the previous small diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) studies have shown cortical white-matter disruption in schizophrenia.To investigate microstructure with DWI a large community-based sample people schizophrenia.Sixty-eight schizophrenia and 64 healthy controls underwent session to obtain apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) water molecules. Regions interest were placed lobes.Compared controls, group had significantly greater ADCs frontal, temporal occipital...
