The electrochemical behavior of catecholamines involves an electron transfer-chemical reaction-electron transfer (ECE) mechanism, characterized by two reversible redox reactions interspersed with an irreversible chemical reaction. Previously, we reported

Prescription trends in Japanese advanced Parkinson's disease patients with non-motor symptoms: J-FIRST. [PDF]
BackgroundNon-motor symptoms (NMS) are important factors when selecting treatments for patients with advanced Parkinson's disease (PD). We sought to elucidate the prescribing practices for advanced PD patients with NMS in Japanese clinical practice ...

Copper oxide, ionic liquid and Mn(III) Salen modified carbon paste electrode as selective electrochemical sensor for determination of droxidopa in the presence of carbidopa [PDF]
A novel electrochemical sensor for the selective and sensitive detection of droxidopa in presence of carbidopa at physiological pH was developed by the bulk modification of carbon paste electrode (CPE) with copper oxide (CuO), ionic liquid and Mn (III ...

Contamination of the Norepinephrine Prodrug Droxidopa by Dihydroxyphenylacetaldehyde [PDF]
AbstractBackground: l-Threo-3,4-dihydroxyphenylserine (L-DOPS, droxidopa) is a norepinephrine (NE) prodrug under development to treat orthostatic hypotension. 3,4-Dihydroxyphenylacetaldehyde (DOPAL), an endogenous catecholaldehyde produced by enzymatic oxidative deamination of dopamine, is toxic to catecholaminergic neurons. Based on the observation of

Long-term safety of droxidopa in patients with symptomatic neurogenic orthostatic hypotension [PDF]
The long-term safety of droxidopa for the treatment of symptomatic neurogenic orthostatic hypotension in patients with Parkinson disease, pure autonomic failure, multiple system atrophy, or nondiabetic autonomic neuropathy was evaluated in a phase 3, multinational, open-label study in patients who previously participated in a double-blind, placebo ...

Compliance with National and International Guidelines in the Treatment of Nonmotor Symptoms in Late-Stage Parkinson's Disease. [PDF]
Background. National as well as international Parkinson’s disease (PD) treatment guidelines are available to guide clinicians. Previous research has shown that nonmotor symptoms (NMS) are pronounced in late‐stage PD and has suggested that current treatment is insufficient and could be improved. Objectives.

Droxidopa in neurogenic orthostatic hypotension [PDF]
Neurogenic orthostatic hypotension (nOH) is a fall in blood pressure (BP) on standing due to reduced norepinephrine release from sympathetic nerve terminals. nOH is a feature of several neurological disorders that affect the autonomic nervous system, most notably Parkinson disease (PD), multiple system atrophy (MSA), pure autonomic failure (PAF), and ...
