1 In the mice pretreated with PLG, although the striatal DA level was also reduced, mean DA and 5-HT levels were significantly higher than in mice given MPTP alone. 1-Methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine plasminogen Mus musculus
2 It is concluded that PLG can prevent, at least partially, the neurotoxic effect of MPTP. 1-Methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine plasminogen Mus musculus
3 We assume that the mechanism of action of PLG may directly or indirectly reduce MPTP-induced dopaminergic neurotoxicity in the nigrostriatal system or reduce the affinity of MPP+ to melanin in DA cells. 1-Methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine plasminogen Mus musculus
