I don't know.
Minocycline does not seem to affect dopamine receptors directly. It kinda sorta acts like glycine or GABA, but coming from the opposite direction. Perhaps minocycline will demonstrate utility as an adjunct to neuroleptics. It is being studied as monotherapy, though, for both positive and negative symptoms. I would think that it would be effective for negative symptoms. I am less sure about positive symptoms.
How did you come to be interested in minocycline?
