This study aimed to investigate the effects of levodopa (L-dopa), p-coumaric acid, and combinations in the neuroblastoma (N1E-115) cell. L-dopa and L-dopa plus p-coumaric acid group caused oxidative stress by increasing 12.5 and 3.7-fold in superoxide ...

In the title molecular salt, C9H12NO4+·Br−·C9H11NO4, one of the dopa molecules is in the cationic form in which the α-amino group is protonated and the α-carboxylic acid group is uncharged, while the second dopa molecule is in the zwitterion form. The Br−

6R-L-erythro-5,6,7,8-Tetrahydrobiopterin and Dopamine Release
We previously reported that intracerebroventricular administration of 6R-L-erythro-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrobiopterin (6R-BJL), a cofactor for aromatic amino acid hydroxylases and nitric oxide synthase, induces an increase in DOPA levels (as an index of DA ...

GABA storage and release in the medial globus pallidus in L-DOPA-induced dyskinesia priming
Levo-dihydroxyphenylalanine (L-DOPA) is the most effective treatment for Parkinson's disease; however, most patients develop uncontrollable abnormal involuntary movements known as L-DOPA-induced dyskinesia.

We examined the inhibitory effect of tetrahydrobiopterin (BPH4) on L-β-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)alanine (DOPA)-induced cytotoxicity in PC-12 cells. First in vitro inhibitory efficacy of BPH4 on lipid peroxidation induced by Fe3+-DOPA complex was confirmed by

Levodopa (L-DOPA) is the most effective drug for Parkinson's disease (PD). However, the response to L-DOPA remains individually variable, which hampers the practical value of L-DOPA in the clinic. Genetic factors play a role in L-DOPA efficacy.

Striatal astrocytes act as a reservoir for L-DOPA.
L-DOPA is therapeutically efficacious in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD), although dopamine (DA) neurons are severely degenerated. Since cortical astrocytes express neutral amino acid transporter (LAT) and DA transporter (DAT), the uptake and ...

In 10 patients with Parkinsonism, treatment with L-dopa was associated with a rise in the skin conductance level and its fluctuations, an increased electromyographic activity in the frontalis muscle, and with faster reaction times. The change of skin conductance in response to a loud noise also increased and its habituation to the repetition of the ...
