Schizophrenia: a postulated animal model.

B B Perlman

    Medical Hypotheses
    |November 1, 1976
    PubMed
    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    This paper explores how brain injury, epilepsy, and schizophrenia may relate to inter-hemispheric communication and cerebral asymmetry. It proposes a unifying hypothesis for a potential animal model of schizophrenia.

    Area of Science:

    • Neuroscience
    • Psychiatry
    • Neurology

    Background:

    • Psychiatric issues in epilepsy and brain injury may depend on injury laterality.
    • Schizophrenia is increasingly linked to inter-hemispheric communication deficits.
    • Cerebral asymmetry is a focus in animal rotation studies.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To explore the convergence of findings from epilepsy, brain injury, and schizophrenia research.
    • To propose a unifying hypothesis for an animal model of schizophrenia.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of existing literature on psychiatric concomitants of epilepsy and brain injury.
    • Analysis of research linking schizophrenia to inter-hemispheric relations.
    • Examination of experimental animal studies on cerebral asymmetry.

    Main Results:

    • Suggests a potential link between injury side, inter-hemispheric function, and psychiatric phenomena.
    • Identifies common neurochemical and anatomical systems in animal models and schizophrenia hypotheses.

    Conclusions:

    • The convergence of these fields may offer a novel perspective on schizophrenia.
    • This perspective could lead to the development of a plausible animal model for schizophrenia.
