Impacts of exposure to and subsequent discontinuation of clozapine on tripartite synaptic transmission.

Clozapine discontinuation restored PP2A signalling due to decreased L-BAIBA, increased 5-HT receptor expression via probably enhanced 5-HT receptor recycling, but increased astroglial D-serine release persisted by transiently activated IP3 receptors via transiently increased IP3 level. Decreased L-BAIBA caused by clozapine discontinuation is, at least partially, involved in the transiently increased 5-HT receptor and astroglial D-serine release.
