1. Introduction
Schizophrenia is a severe neuropsychiatric disorder with an elusive
etiology, thought to result from abnormal brain development. Receptor/
ligand interactions on oligodendrocytes are critically involved in axonal
outgrowth processes which are key to normal brain development [1].
Inappropriate outgrowth and myelination of axons could subsequently
result in axonal miswiring which has been previously reported in
schizophrenia and in children who have experienced stress and trauma
early in life [2,3].
