Abstract |
C3 and C6 complement types were studied in schizophrenic patients and controls. The distributions of the three common C3 types (F, FS and S) among the patients was significantly different from that in the controls (p less than 0.005) and the frequency of the C3F gene was significantly increased (p less than 0.0005) among the patients. There were no significant differences in C6 gene or phenotype frequencies between patient and controls.
