Title

Reduced cerebrospinal fluid levels of lysophosphatidic acid docosahexaenoic acid in patients with major depressive disorder and schizophrenia

Overall design

The aim of this study was to investigate the levels of lysophospholipids species including lysophosphatidic acid and related metabolic enzymes, in cerebrospinal fluid of patients with major depressive disorder (MDD) and schizophrenia (SCZ). Cerebrospinal fluid was obtained from age- and sex-matched healthy controls (control group, n = 27) and patients with MDD (MDD group, n = 26) and SCZ (SCZ group, n = 27). The levels of lysophospholipids species were measured with liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry.
