Increased Hippocampal Glutamate and Volumetric Deficits in Unmedicated Patients With Schizophrenia
Open accessAbstract
IMPORTANCE: Alterations in glutamatergic neurotransmission have been postulated to be a key pathophysiologic mechanism in schizophrenia. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate hippocampal volumetric measures and neurometabolites in unmedicated patients with schizophrenia and the correlations between these markers. Our a priori hypothesis was that glutamate levels would negatively correlate with hippocampal volume in schizophrenia. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS: Combined 3-T structural magnetic resonance imaging and single-voxel proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy study at the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Neurobiology, University of Alabama at Birmingham, of 27 unmedicated patients with schizophrenia and 27 healthy controls. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES: Hippocampal volumetric measures and neurometabolites, and the correlations between volumetric measurements and neurometabolites. RESULTS: Hippocampal volumetric deficits, increased ratios of hippocampal glutamate and glutamine to creatine (Glx/Cr), and a loss of correlation between hippocampal N-acetylaspartate (NAA)/Cr and Glx/Cr in patients with schizophrenia were found. Significant correlations between hippocampal volumetric measures and Glx/Cr were also found in patients with schizophrenia but not healthy controls. CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE: Our findings support the theory that alterations in hippocampal glutamate levels potentially account for structural deficits in the hippocampus observed in schizophrenia neuroimaging studies.

Evidence suggests adolescent alcohol exposure alters glutamatergic function, and increases in hippocampal glutamate have been linked to schizophrenia and psychosis.
“This finding is particularly relevant given the evidence suggesting AAE alters glutamatergic function [73, 74], and increases in hippocampal glutamate have been linked to schizophrenia [75] and psychosis [76].”

Psychosis has also been associated with increased hippocampal glutamate levels in humans.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
