Schizophrenia involves immune system changes, including reduced interleukin-2 (IL-2) production and increased IL-2 receptors. Auto-antibodies may also contribute to schizophrenia

Area of Science:

  • Immunology
  • Neuroscience
  • Psychiatry

Context:

  • Schizophrenia is associated with reported immune system modifications.
  • Both cellular and humoral immunity appear altered in schizophrenia patients.

Purpose:

  • To review immune system alterations in schizophrenia.
  • To explore the role of interleukin-2 (IL-2) and auto-antibodies in schizophrenia.

Summary:

  • Studies indicate decreased IL-2 production by T lymphocytes and increased IL-2 receptors in schizophrenia.
  • An auto-immune hypothesis suggests auto-antibodies play a role in schizophrenia.
  • Natural auto-antibodies might be involved, especially in neuroleptic drug responses.

Impact:
