...…(Stone, 1993), as well as the alpha-7-nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (competitively) (α7nAChR) (Hilmas et al., 2001), and studies of postmortem frontal cortex obtained from individuals with schizophrenia have revealed increased levels of KYNA (Sathyasaikumar et al., 2011; Schwarcz et al., 2001)....

...Increased levels of KYN and KYNA have indeed also been observed in postmortem prefrontal cortex of schizophrenia patients, while 3-HK levels were unaltered (Sathyasaikumar et al., 2011; Schwarcz et al., 2001)....

...The activity of 3-HAO, which catalyzes the formation of the NMDA receptor agonist quinolinic acid from 3hydroxyanthranilic acid, was found to be reduced in BA 9, ie, the dorsolateral subdivision of the PFC that is preferentially involved in sustaining attention and working memory.(48) A tendency toward lower 3-HAO activity was also observed in BA 10, though the results were not statistically significant....
