Abstract

RNA, extracted from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) obtained from 81 Korean psychiatric patients (39 with schizophrenia, 33 with bipolar affective disorders and nine with major depression), was analyzed for a 391-nucleotide, highly conserved region of the p24 protein encoding ORF II of Borna disease virus (BDV), using nested reverse transcription-polymerase drain reaction (RT-PCR). BDV genomic RNA was not detected in PBMC from any of the 81 Korean psychiatric patients. These data do not support an etiologic association between BDV infection and neuropsychiatric disorders in humans.
