Abstract
According to the present study, EGF and IL-1β are markers of FEP. Antipsychotic drug treatment resulted in a significant clinical improvement of FEP patients and the suppression of positive symptoms was correlated with the decreased levels of EGF, IL-2 and IL-4. EGF was the strongest marker of FEP and treatment efficiency among the measured cytokines and growth factors.
