RationaleClozapine is a unique antipsychotic, with efficacy against positive symptoms in treatment-resistant schizophrenic patients, and the ability to improve cognition and treat the negative symptoms characteristic of this disease. Despite its unique clinical actions, no specific molecular mechanism responsible for these actions has yet been described.Objectives and methodsTo comprehensively profile a large library of neuropsychiatric drugs, including most antipsychotics, at human monoamine… CONTINUE READING
