Parkinson's disease is characterized by an extensive loss of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra pars compacta. The final common pathway in the demise of these cells may involve dopamine-dependent oxidative stress. Previous studies revealed a new neuronal protective role of ATP-sensitive potassium channel openers. But the exact mechanism is still unknown. In the present study, the neuroprotective...
1-Methyl-4-phenylpyridinium is a potent parkinsonism-inducing neurotoxin which has become a valuable tool for the examination of the mechanisms and therapeutic treatment strategies for Parkinson's syndrome. Recently, it has been found that physiological levels of extracellular ATP (0.1-1mM) stimulate dopamine uptake into both rat and bovine brain synaptosomes and rat pheochromocytoma cells in a dose-dependent...
