A lot of studies show that schizophrenia is a disease that is connected with autoimmune inflamation of the brain cells, but until now noone knows the reason why antibodies react to the brain tissue. A lot of studies show that neurons are stimulated by microglia cells. Those cells are found in the microglia of the hypocampus and reticular nerve system. It is for a long time known that schizophrenie is caused by hyperstimulation of the brain neuron cells which are stimulated by microglia cells. So if we destroy those cells (microglia cells) through chemical agents those cells which are dying stimulate the neurons through release of neurotransmitters. This means the neurons produce neurostimulating transmitters which react through building nerve circles which cause halucinations which are the main reason for clinical manifestation of schizophrenia. According to the autoimmune theory nerve cells are damaged through antibodies which usualy do not pass the haematoencephal barrier which ...
