In order for brain cells to transfer information, one cell will release a neurotransmitter that will be recognized by a receptor located on surface of another cell. One such neurotransmitter is dopamine.\n\nAbnormal dopamine transmission has been seen in patients with substance abuse and different neuropsychiatric disorders including schizophrenia.\n\nA radioactive drug called IZBM (I-123 iodobenzamide) can also bind to certain dopamine receptors. IZBM can be seen by Single Photon Emission Tomography (SPECT). Therefore, by using IZBM and SPECT scans, researchers can find and \"map\" the location of dopamine receptors in the brain.\n\nPatients participating in this study must also have been selected for other genetic studies being conducted at the NIMH. Patients with schizophrenia will be selected from a NIMH research study titled, \"Neurobiological Investigation of Patients with Schizophrenia Spectrum Disorders and Their Siblings\" (95-M-0150). Normal patient volunteers will be selected from another NIMH study titled, \"Inpatient Evaluation of Neuropsychiatric Patients\" (89-M-0160). All aspects of clinical care and genetic analysis of these patients will be covered in these studies, while information pertaining to IBZM SPECT scans will be covered in this study.\n\nThis study will not directly benefit patients participating in it. However, information gathered may contribute to faster and more accurate diagnosis of schizophrenia and eventually better treatment for the disorder.", "detailedDescription"=>"Abnormalities in dopaminergic neurotransmission have been described in substance abuse and different neuropsychiatric disorders including schizophrenia. \\[I-123\\] IBZM is a radioligand that has been widely employed for SPECT imaging of dopamine type 2 and type 3 receptors (D2 and D3, respectively) and fluctuations in levels of endogenous dopamine. \\[I-123\\] IBZM SPECT has been used in the SPECT Lab of the Clinical Brain Disorders Branch for several years without adverse effects. Pharmacological effects of IBZM are unlikely due to the minimal amounts used and have not been observed. We propose to use \\[I-123\\] IBZM SPECT to explore following questions: 1) Can a previously found relationship between N-acetylaspartate (NAA) measures in the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex and striatal dopamine activity in patients with schizophrenia be replicated and is it also found in normal subjects? 2) Do allelic variants of genes for the dopamine type 2 (DRD2) and type 3 (DRD3) receptors, the dopamine transporter (SLC6A3), or enzymes involved in dopamine biosynthesis (TH) and metabolism (COMT, MAOA) affect D2 receptor availability in vivo?\n\nThis technical protocol describes the procedural aspects of \\[I-123\\]IBZM SPECT. It is not intended to be sufficient on its own for a clinical study. All subjects volunteering for this study will be recruited from among individuals who have previously consented to participate in clinical studies under one of two NIH protocols that include genetic testing. Schizophrenia patients will be recruited from among NIMH inpatients participating under NIH protocol #89-M-0160, \"Inpatient Evaluation of Neuropsychiatric Patients\" (Egan 1999a). Normal volunteers will be recruited from among those participating under NIH protocol #95-M-0150, \"A Neurobiological Investigation of Patients with Schizophrenia Spectrum Disorders and Their Siblings\" (Egan 1999b), which includes recruitment of a normal control group whose first degree relatives are free of mental illness. All details related to clinical care and genetic analysis are contained in those two protocols and their associated consent forms; all details related to \\[I-123\\]IBZM SPECT studies, per se, are discussed in this protocol, which requires a separate informed consent from each volunteer."}, "eligibilityModule"=>{"sex"=>"ALL", "stdAges"=>["CHILD", "ADULT", "OLDER_ADULT"], "healthyVolunteers"=>true, "eligibilityCriteria"=>"INCLUSION CRITERIA:\n\nPatients with schizophrenia will be recruited exclusively from among inpatients who are participating in clinical studies of the Clinical Brain Disorders Branch of NIMH under NIH protocol #89-M-0160 (Egan 1999a) and for whom genetic data is already available.\n\nNormal volunteers will be recruited exclusively from among individuals who have volunteered for studies under NIH protocol #95-M-0150 (Egan 1999b) as normal control subjects and for whom genetic data is already being analyzed.\n\nEXCLUSION CRITERIA:\n\nPregnancy: All women of childbearing age must undergo a pregnancy test prior to injection or radioactive isotope.
