Raised cytomegalovirus-antibody level in cerebrospinal fluid of schizophrenic patients.

P Albrecht, E F Torrey, E Boone, J T Hicks, N Daniel.   

Abstract

The serum and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of 60 schizophrenic patients and 26 controls were analysed for viral antibody against cytomegalovirus (CMV), vaccinia virus, herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV), and type A influenza virus. A CSF/serum antibody ratio more than 2 standard deviations above the mean of the controls suggested local antibody production in the central nervous system. 68% of the patients had an increased CSF/serum antibody ratio for CMV antibody, 14% for vaccinia antibody, 4% for HSV antibody, and 15% for influenza virus antibody.
