Giovanni A, Sonsalla P, Heikkila R
J Pharmacol Exp Ther . 1994 Sep; 270(3):1008-14. PMID: 7932148
There are marked species differences in susceptibility to the neurotoxic effects of 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP). Mice are sensitive, whereas rats are relatively insensitive to MPTP. In these two species, the effects...

J Pharmacol Exp Ther . 1994 Sep; 270(3):1000-7. PMID: 7932147
Several parameters necessary for the expression of 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP)-induced neurotoxicity to dopaminergic neurons were examined in both mice and rats in order to determine if differences in these processes might...

Neurology . 1994 Aug; 44(8):1432-6. PMID: 8058144
We report a patient with Meige syndrome (segmental cranial dystonia) who had neuropathologic changes of Parkinson's disease on postmortem examination. Neuropathologic examination showed typical and atypical Lewy bodies in the...

J Neurochem . 1992 Mar; 58(3):1052-9. PMID: 1737983
The effects of 1-methyl-4-(2'-ethylphenyl)-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (2'Et-MPTP), 1-methyl-4-(2'-ethylphenyl)pyridinium (2'Et-MPP+), and the classic complex 1 inhibitor, rotenone, on toxicity as well as on rates of glucose use and lactate production were studied using...

J Pharmacol Exp Ther . 1992 Mar; 260(3):1400-9. PMID: 1312170
Several analogs of 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium (MPP+) were evaluated for their affinity for the dopamine uptake system and their ability to inhibit NADH dehydrogenase (complex I) of the mitochondrial electron-transport chain. Moreover,...

J Pharmacol Exp Ther . 1991 May; 257(2):691-7. PMID: 2033514
In the present study we observed pronounced differences in the capacity of 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP) to induce dopaminergic neurotoxicity in several strains of mice. For example, there was no MPTP-induced decrement...
