classic trad of pd
resting tremor

rigidity

bradykinesia
apart from age what's the strongest predictor of pd
family hx
pd is a neurodenetive disorder of hte exrapyramidal dopaminergic --- ----- pathway
nigrostriatal
which da neurons are presevered in PD and which die
preserved: ventral tegmentum

die: substantia nigra
t/f

in pd there's an increase in da in the nigrostriatum
f

decrease
when is pd clinically apparent
after 80% of da die
mutation in this gene might lead to pd
alpha-synuclein
possible environmental factors of pd
manganese

herbicides/pesticides

ani-da antipsychotic durgs

recreational drugs: MPTP
normal agin endogenous neurotoxins associated w/ pd
auto-oxidation of dopamine (quinones)

mao catalyzed oxidation of neurotransmission
quinone can generate --- ---- radicals and by --- the species in the neuro and cause them to die
cytotoxic hydroxy

alkylating
mao-catalyzed oxidation of catecholamine nt generates --- ----
hydrogen peroxide

this can form a cytotoxic hydroxy radical
--- products of DA metabolism accelerate progressive degeneration of A9 nigral neurons in normal aging and parkinson's disease
oxidized
oxidative metabolism of ---- contributes to neuronal cell injury and ---- via oxidative damage resulting from formatio of such reactive oxygen free radical and quinoid species
catecholamines

death
---- is a by-product from reverse ester of the narcotic analgesic meperidine
MPTP
MPTP is a ----
pyridine
mptp is a substrate for --- ---

MPP+
what can inhibitthe converstion of mptp to mpdp+ by mao-b
pargyline

deprenyl
what will inhibit the conversion of mpp+ uptake into the catecholamine neurons
mazindol
--- is an antipsychotic drug w/ mpp like metabolite that cuases parkinsonian like se
haldolperidol
the neurotoxin causes by haldol
HPP+
HPP+ can cuause what eps
tardive dyskinesia
why's it possible that herbicides can cause pd
cuase they (paraquat) look like MPP+
initial lesion has to be ---
specific
pharmotx for pd is ----
symptomatic
pharmocotx for pd involves the

augmentation of the synthesis of brain ----

stimulatio of da release from --- sites

---- stimulation of da receptors

decreasing ----- of da at presynatpic sites

levadopa

levadopa
t/f

levadopa can cause ------
neurotoxicity
what can prevent the absorption of levadopa
