Our current stuty is aimed to compare Glutathione (GSH)
levels between in patients with Schizophrenia (Sz) and
healty controls (HC) quantified in the ACC employing a
validated J-editing quantification method.GSH levels
were quantified with 1H-MRS. Our pilot data demonstrated
lower levels of GSH/H2O in ACC in patients with Sz
compared with HC (P= 0.0002).
