Abstract
⺠Several excitatory amino acids were studied to find a biological marker for schizophrenia. ⺠Peripheral blood levels of endogenous glycine and alanine could be “symptomatic marker”. ⺠Exogenous glycine and alanine in augmentation therapies could be therapeutic markers. ⺠Endogenous d-serine may prove to be the useful 'diagnostic' and 'therapeutic' marker.
