## Abstract Evidence has been accumulating that schizophrenia involves abnormalities in the composition and metabolism of cell membrane phospholipids (PLs) in the brain. In vivo ^31^P MRS has been used to measure the metabolic precursors and degradation products of PL metabolism in schizophrenia. B

## Abstract Cell membrane abnormalities due to changes in phospholipid (PL) composition and metabolism have been implicated in schizophrenia pathogenesis. That work has generally assessed membrane phospholipids from nonneural tissues such as erythrocytes and platelets. Highβresolution ^31^P NMR spe
The in vivo dog brain "P NMR spectrum has a large peak in the phosphodiester region accounting for more than 35% of the total observable phosphorus metabolites. It is possible to reduce the intensity of this peak by off-resonance saturation. To characterize the nature of this peak, extracts of dog b
Techniques are described for the (31)P NMR analysis of glycerophospholipid (PL) headgroup and molecular species in brain. The (31)P NMR spectrum of PLs from human temporal cortex, solubilized in aqueous Na cholate, typically showed 3 major resonances, assigned to phosphatidylcholine (PC) molecular s
