Peripheral neurotransmitter metabolic signatures in schizophrenia: a targeted metabolomics study
By Han B, Guo Y, Feng B and 7 others.
Abstract
Objective
To investigate peripheral metabolic alterations in patients with schizophrenia using a two-stage metabolomic workflow of untargeted analysis and targeted re-analysis,explore the associated metabolic pathways, identify potential peripheral metabolic biomarkers, and elucidate the underlying metabolic dysregulation mechanisms.
