The effects of gamma-Aminobutyric acid on Surround suppression in schizophrenia

This paper present a literature review on the following articles.

Functional Consequences of Neurocognitive Deficits in Schizophrenia by Green

This article presents research on the fact that neurocognitive deficits pose restrictions on the functions of schizophrenic patients. Moreover, the author has also discussed the consequences in such cases.

Physiologic Dysfunction in Schizophrenia by Weinberger

This author has conducted an experiment with the patients having chronic schizophrenia. It has developed a correlation between the prefrontal cortex and schizophrenia.

Working Memory by Goldman

The author elaborates that cerebral cortex is a unified structure with the mnemonic processes of its frontal lobe grafted in part upon the architecture of its sensory systems. It develops a relationship between the prefrontal pyramidal neurons in working memory.

Prefrontal Cortex of Schizophrenics by Akbarian

The article has established a link between the GABA, gamma Aminobutyric acid, and schizophrenics. It also states that loss of GABA neurons may cause the death of cells. It disables the migration of cells to the cortex, hence affecting the development of brain.

Molecular Characterization of Schizophrenia by Middleton

The article has discussed the application of microarray technology to the theories of schizophrenia. The implementation of technology proves the fact that schizophrenia shares a common abnormality with the presynaptic function.

Neocortical Inhibitory System by Markram

The author as presented a detailed review of the numerous morphological, electrophysiological, and molecular traits of the neutrons of gamma Aminobutyric acid (GABA) neurons. Moreover, it discusses the organizing principles that regulates the diversity of inhibitory inter neurons and their circuits.

Interneurons Unbound by Mcbain

The author has presented a comprehensive review of the functional roles of gamma Aminobutyric acid. Moreover, it describes the properties and emerging principles of interneuron function.

GABA Neurons in the Prefrontal Cortex of Schizophrenia by Hashimoto

This article has confirmed the fact ...
