Schizophrenia and disordered neural circuitry.
نویسنده
چکیده
The knowledge of how alterations in neural circuitry relate to the symptoms of schizophrenia may depend on our ability to disentangle a complex cascade of pathological events that affect multiple brain regions. Recent progress in Alzheimer's disease research may provide several useful guiding principles in this pursuit.

Neural synchrony indexes disordered perception and cognition in schizophrenia.
Current views of schizophrenia suggest that it results from abnormalities in neural circuitry, but empirical evidence in the millisecond range of neural activity has been difficult to obtain. In pursuit of relevant evidence, we previously demonstrated that schizophrenia is associated with abnormal patterns of stimulus-evoked phaselocking of the electroencephalogram in the gamma band (30-100 Hz)...
متن کاملReduced high and low frequency gamma synchronization in patients with chronic schizophrenia.
Schizophrenia has been conceptualized by dysfunctional cognition and behavior related to abnormalities in neural circuitry. The functioning of the neural circuitry can be assessed using the auditory steady state response (ASSR). Moreover, in recent years, research on high (>60 Hz) gamma band oscillations has become of increasing interest. The current study used whole-head, 306-channel magnetoen...
متن کاملAbnormal neural synchrony in schizophrenia.
Schizophrenia has been conceptualized as a failure of cognitive integration, and abnormalities in neural circuitry (particularly inhibitory interneurons) have been proposed as a basis for this disorder. We used measures of phase locking and phase coherence in the scalp-recorded electroencephalogram to examine the synchronization of neural circuits in schizophrenia. Compared with matched control...
متن کاملGenetic influence on the working memory circuitry: behavior, structure, function and extensions to illness.
Working memory is a highly heritable complex cognitive trait that is critical for a number of higher-level functions. However, the neural substrates of this behavioral phenotype are intricate and it is unknown through what precise biological mechanism variation in working memory is transmitted. In this review we explore different functional and structural components of the working memory circui...
متن کاملA Novel Bio-Psychosocial-Behavioral Treatment Model in Schizophrenia
Despite the substantial burden of illness in schizophrenia, there has been a discrepancy between the beneficial effects of an increased use of antipsychotic medications and achieving limited recovery or remission. Because the focus of the most common antipsychotic medications is on dopamine, which is associated with positive symptoms, there is an unmet need for patients with negative symptoms. ...
