Abstract
It was assumed that ATPase activity in those suffering from acute paranoid schizophrenia is higher than in normals because schizophrenia may be a disease of cell excitability. We tested the sodium potassium ATPase activity in red cell ghosts in 17 patients with acute paranoid schizophrenia and 27 normal control subjects. No significant differences in ATPase activities were found between the two groups.
