Objectives: Although clozapine exhibited high efficacy for treating the symptoms of patients with treatment-resistant schizophrenia (TRS), its precise action mechanisms have not been fully understood. Recently, accumulating evidence has suggested the presence of abnormalities in the gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) systems in patients with schizophrenia, and the potential effects of clozapine on GABA receptors have gained a great deal of attention. Experimental Designs: In the present study, the cortical silent period (CSP), an electrophysiological parameter of GABA function via GABAB receptors, was measured using with the transcranial magnetic stimulation in patients with schizophrenia and healthy control subjects. Then the CSP of patients treated with clozapine (N = 12) was compared with that of patients treated with other antipsychotics (N = 25) and with that of healthy controls (N = 27). Principal Observations: The CSP of the patients treated with clozapine was significantly longer compared to those of the other two groups. The CSP of patients treated with other antipsychotics was similar to that of healthy subjects. There was a positive correlation between CSP and global assessment of function (GAF) in patients with TRS. Conclusions: The present study indicated that CSP was prolonged in patients receiving clozapine, and suggested that clozapine enhances the transmission signal via GABAB receptors.
