Influence of cytochrome P450 2D6 polymorphism on hippocampal white matter and treatment response in schizophrenia
Abstract Cytochrome P450 2D6 (CYP2D6) is expressed at high levels in the brain and plays a considerable role in the biotransformation and neurotransmission of dopamine. This raises the question of whether CYP2D6 variations and its impact on the brain can confer susceptibility to schizophrenia. We in...
