title: Failure to detect dopamine receptor IgG autoantibodies in sera of schizophrenic patients. Short note.
abstract: Autoantibodies against dopamine receptors in schizophrenic patients have been postulated. IgG was fractionated from sera of 15 schizophrenic patients (DSM III) in an acute episode. However, 3H-spiperone binding to dopamine receptors was not inhibited by this fraction.
