Abstract Enzyme immunoassay showed that serotonin-modulated protein SMP-69 from the brain of albino rats displayed no tissue specificity and was present in platelets. Platelet content of SMP-69 in patients with schizophrenia surpassed that in healthy humans. Our findings indicate that this method can be used in forensic psychiatry and clinical practice to control the state of patients in therapy.
