Re: Do you agree with NMDA hypofunction hypothesis?

It can work both ways too. Dopamine agonists often decrease NMDA function.

Schizophrenia is not a single disorder. The NMDA model seems to closer match the 'disorganized' subtype of the disorder. Whereas, the dopaminergic model seems to match the paranoid subtype. This being said, neither of these are likely at the core of the disorder. Dysfunction in dopamine or NMDA likely result from other dysfunctions.
