 Project Summary  Leisa Glantz, Ph.D. (Young Investigator 2001) of University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill, is investigating the role of proteins that participate in apoptosis, a form of programmed cell death that occurs throughout the lifetime. There are some suggestions that brain abnormalities found in schizophrenic patients could result from an alteration in this process. Dr. Glantz will investigate two proteins involved in apoptosis in autopsied brains of patients with schizophrenia. This work may lead to a better understanding of the pathologic process that gives rise to the brain anomalies found in schizophrenia. Program Area: SCHIZOPHRENIA/PSYCHOTIC DISORDERS\Schizophrenia |
