Exploring ageing as a potential new therapeutic target for schizophrenia

Listen to this summary

The authors investigate whether the biological changes associated with aging could serve as a new therapeutic target for schizophrenia. They propose that schizophrenia may be part of a broader spectrum of brain disorders linked to a multisystemic premature aging phenotype, similar to Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases. This research aims to explore the potential connections between aging and schizophrenia to inform future treatment strategies.
