[Immunoglobulins of classes G, A and M in the serum of schizophrenics].

The levels of immunoglobulins, G, A and M in the blood serum were examined in 84 schizophrenic patients and 87 normal donors. The concentration of immunoglobulins G and M was elevated in patients in the period of exacerbation as compared to normal subjects. The levels of these immunoglobulins in patients on psychotropic drugs as against normal subjects were unchanged. The concentration of immunoglobulins G and M depended on the sex, clinical state and the effect of psychotropic therapy, that of immunoglobulin A on the age and duration of the manifest period.
