A esquizofrenia é um transtorno psiquiátrico devastador cuja fisiopatologia ainda está para ser esclarecida. Apesar de uma disfunção dopaminérgica estar bem estabelecida na esquizofrenia, há uma série de evidências sugerindo o envolvimento do sistema glutamatérgico na fisiopatologia do transtorno. Este artigo faz uma breve revisão de alguns aspectos básicos do funcionamento dos receptores glutamatérgicos com ênfase nos receptores N-metil-D-aspartato (NMDA). Apresenta evidências científicas sugerindo uma disfunção do sistema glutamatérgico na esquizofrenia (hipofunção de receptores NMDA). E discute as interações entre os sistemas dopaminérgico e glutamatérgico; mais especificamente como os estados hiperdopaminérgicos encontrados na esquizofr...
