Popis: The release and re-uptake of theories of schizophrenia is a process nearly as universal as neurotransmission itself, since every neurotransmitter has been proposed, at one time or another, as contributing to the etiology of the disease. There are theories implicating acetylcholine, noradrenaline, serotonin, GABA, and dopamine. Certainly this phenomenon underscores the relevance of basic research, since each new discovery of neuroregulatory substances brings with it possibilities for theorizing and experimenting about schizophrenia.
