Definitions

  • Schizophrenia is a serious brain disorder that affects approximately 1 % of the human population. The cause of this complex and devastating disease remains elusive, although genetic, nutritional, environmental, and developmental factors have been considered.
  • a combination of clinical, neuroimaging, and postmortem studies have implicated the dorsal prefrontal cortex (PFC) as a prominent site of dysfunction in schizophrenia.
  • PFC dorsal prefrontal cortex
  • Schizophrenia is typically characterized as a disorder of thinking and cognition, as contrasted to other disorders of mental faculties, such as mood, social behavior, and those affecting learning, memory, and intelligence. Schizophrenia is generally characterized by psychotic episodes during which an individual may lose the ability to test reality or may have hallucinations, delusions, incoherent thinking, and even disordered memory. There are varying forms of schizophrenia differing in severity, from a schizotypal disorder to a catatonic state.
  • Antipsychotic drugs were identified in the 1950's, and these drugs were found to produce a dramatic improvement in the psychotic phase of the illness. Reserpine was the first of these drugs to be used and was followed by typical antipsychotic drugs including phenothiazines, the butyrophenones, and the thioxanthenes. A new group of therapeutic drugs, typified by clozapine, has been developed and were referred to as "a typical" antipsychotics. Haloperidol has been employed extensively in the treatment of schizophrenia and is one of the currently preferred options for treatment. When these drugs are taken over the course of at least several weeks, they mitigate or eliminate delusions, hallucinations, and some types of disordered thinking.

  • mice and rats are anesthetized with ketamine/xylazine (100/10 mg/kg, i.p.). A l- cm incision is made in the skin on the dorsal aspect of the animal and an implant is placed between dermis and muscle. Removal of implants is performed with identical anesthesia and incision followed by implant retrieval. Bioactivity of sertindole implants are assessed in mice and rats. The mice received implants made of 85:15 PLGA, 65:35 PLGA, 50:50 PLGA or PCL alone or with 35% or 45% sertindole to assess the effects of implants. Following three weeks of implantation, the rats and mice are assessed for improvement. Implants are then removed and animals are allowed to recover for 48 hours prior to additional testing.
