INTRODUCTION In Parkinson's disease (PD), compelling data indicate a functional link between adenosine/dopamine receptors and the progression of the neurodegenerative process. The present study was carried out to evaluate the effect of the non-selective adenosine receptor (ADR) antagonist caffeine, as well as the selective antagonists 8-cyclopentyl-1,3-dipropylxanthine (DPCPX), an ADRsA1 antago...
Increased glutamate decarboxylase mRNA levels in the striatum and pallidum of MPTP-treated primates.
The mRNA levels encoding for the enzyme glutamate decarboxylase (GAD67) were measured by computerized image analysis after in situ hybridization histochemistry and radioautography in the striatum and pallidum of normal squirrel monkeys (Saimiri sciureus), or after treatment with the neurotoxin 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP). All MPTP-injected monkeys exhibited profound moto...
The effects of i.c.v. injection of AIDA, a group I mGluR antagonist, were studied on the nigral DA cells after MPTP-induced injury in the black mouse, using TH immunocytochemistry and unbiased stereology. MPTP reduced the total number of TH-IR neurons by 55.2% and non-TH-IR neurons by 27.5%. A 15 min AIDA pre-treatment (10 nmol) selectively counteracted the loss of TH-IR cells caused by MPTP as...
The in vivo regional distribution of [18F]GBR 13119 (1-[(4-[18F]fluorophenyl(phenyl)methoxy)ethyl]-4-(3-phenylpropyl) piperazine), a specific dopamine reuptake inhibitor, was examined in brains of C57BL/6 mice after MPTP treatment. At 2 weeks post MPTP the in vivo specific binding of [18F]GBR 13119 in striatum was decreased 63% relative to age and sex-matched controls. Animals studied at 6 and ...
1. The neuronal mechanisms underlying the major motor signs of Parkinson's disease were studied in the basal ganglia of parkinsonian monkeys. Three African green monkeys were systemically treated with 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP) until parkinsonian signs, including akinesia, rigidity, and a prominent 4- to 8-Hz tremor, appeared. The activity of neurons in the subthalamic ...
Parkinson’s disease (PD) has emerged as the second most common form of human neurodegenerative disorders. However, due to severe side effects current antiparkinsonian drugs, design novel and safe compounds is a hot topic amongst medicinal chemistry community. Herein, convenient peptide method, TBTU (O-(benzotriazole-1-yl)-N,N,N′,N′-tetramethyluronium tetrafluoroborate), was used for synthesis a...
Introduction: Mitochondrial permeability transition pore (MPTP) has been implicated in a wide variety of diseases such as cancer, neurodegenerative diseases, and diabetes. Crassocephalum rubens is leafy vegetable consumed different parts Africa for the management symptoms diabetes mellitus, inflammation, malaria, blood pressure. The present study evaluated modulatory effects aqueous leaf extrac...
In non-human primates, striatal tyrosine hydroxylase-immunoreactive (TH-ir) cells are increased in number after dopamine depletion and in response to trophic factor delivery. As carotid body cells contain the dopaminotrophic glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF), we evaluated the number, morphology and neurochemistry of these TH-ir cells, in the anterior and posterior striatum of f...
Group I metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs), mGluR1 and mGluR5, regulate activity in the globus pallidus (GP) and subthalamic nucleus (STN). To test whether the localization of group I mGluRs is altered in parkinsonism, we used immunoelectron microscopy to analyze the subcellular and subsynaptic distribution of mGluR1a and mGluR5 in GP and STN of 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridi...
Apathy commonly occurs in Parkinson disease (PD) patients; however, the role of dopamine in the pathophysiology of apathy remains elusive. We previously demonstrated that dopaminergic dysfunction within the ventral tegmental area (VTA)-nucleus accumbens (NAcc) pathway contributes to the manifestation of apathetic behaviors in monkeys treated with the selective dopaminergic neurotoxin 1-methyl-4...
