Significance There are no biomarkers for schizophrenia (SCZ), a disorder of dysfunctional neural networks. We demonstrate that a master regulator of cytoskeleton (“CRMP2”) and, hence, neural circuitry, may form the basis for such a biomarker because its activity is uniquely imbalanced in SCZ patients. We show that SCZ patients are characterized by an excess of active CRMP2 not only in their brains (where it is correlated with dendritic abnormalities) but also in their peripheral blood lymphocytes. The abundance of active CRMP2 and insufficiency of opposing inactive p-CRMP2 likely disrupts neuronal function. Because peripheral blood CRMP2 appears to reflect intracerebral processes, it could form the basis of a rapid, minimally invasive, sensitive, and specific clinical diagnostic aid for SCZ in young patients.

Clinical evidence that a dysregulated master neural network modulator may aid in diagnosing schizophrenia
