Department of Psychological Medicine, Section of Experimental Neuropathology and Psychiatry, Institute of Psychiatry, DeCrespigny Park, London, United Kingdom
Biol Psychiatry 53:1086-98. 2003..003). CONCLUSIONS: The results of this study indicate that reduced neuronal somal size and increased neuronal density in cortical layers 5 and 6 of the ACC may be key features of schizophrenia, MDD, and BPD...
