Abstract:
Objective To investigate the difference of Alzheimer-associated neuronal thread protein ( AD7c-NTP) level and related factors among different symptom types of schizophrenia. Methods The con-centrations of AD7c-NTP in urine of 30 patients with positive symptoms,46 patients with negative symptoms and 24 controls were detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay( ELISA) . Positive and negative symp-tom scale ( PANSS) was used to assess schizophrenia patients. The correlation analysis was conducted be-tween the urine AD7c-NTP and demographic factors. Results The level of AD7c-NTP in urine of patients with negative symptoms((0. 88±0. 93) ng /ml)was higher than that in the patients with positive symptoms ((0. 50±0. 22)ng/ml,P<0. 05). The level of AD7c-NTP of in urine female patients((1. 16±1. 12)ng/ml) was higher than that in the male patients((0. 57± 0. 49)ng/ml,P<0. 01). AD7c-NTP levels in patients with a course of disease of more than 100 months((0. 96±0. 96)ng/ml) were higher than those in patients with a course of disease of less than 100 months((0. 60±0. 59)ng/ml,P<0. 05). The level of AD7c-NTP in pa-tients over 35 years old((0. 94±0. 96)ng/ml) were higher than that in patients under 35 years old((0. 62±0. 62)ng/ml,P<0. 05). The level of AD7c-NTP in patients with MMSE score of 0-22 points((0. 92±0. 80) ng/ml) were higher than that in patients with score of 23-29 points((0. 62±0. 74)ng/ml,P<0. 05). Before admission(at least 2 months),the level of AD7c-NTP in patients without persisting in taking drugs((0. 99± 0.95)ng/ml) was higher than that in patients with persisting in taking drugs((0. 62±0. 65)ng/ml,P<0. 05). The level of AD7c-NTP in schizophrenic patients was positively correlated with age and course of dis-ease( r=0. 29,0. 26,P<0. 05) ,and negatively correlated with smoking history and mini-mental state exami-nation( MMSE) ( r=-0. 13,-2. 41,P<0. 05) . Conclusion There is a difference in AD7c-NTP levels be-tween patients with positive and negative symptoms of schizophrenia. Gender,age,course of disease and anti-psychotics are important factors that affect AD7c-NTP levels in patients with schizophrenia.
