Targeting Tyrosine Hydroxylase to Improve Bradykinesia

Zebrafish tyrosine hydroxylase 2 gene encodes tryptophan hydroxylase.

The primary pathological hallmark of Parkinson disease (PD) is the profound loss of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra pars compacta. To facilitate the understanding of the underling mechanism of PD, several zebrafish PD models have been generated to recapitulate the characteristics of dopaminergic (DA) neuron loss. In zebrafish studies, tyrosine hydroxylase 1 (th1) has been frequentl...

Novel mutations in the tyrosine hydroxylase gene in the first Czech patient with tyrosine hydroxylase deficiency.

Tyrosine hydroxylase deficiency manifests mainly in early childhood and includes two clinical phenotypes: an infantile progressive hypokinetic-rigid syndrome with dystonia (type A) and a neonatal complex encephalopathy (type B). The biochemical diagnostics is exclusively based on the quantitative determination of the neurotransmitters or their met...

Tyrosine hydroxylase: activation by nerve stimulation.

The synthesis of the sympathetic neurotransmitter, norepinephrine, is accelerated by electrical stimulation of the guinea pig vas deferens. The molecular mechanism responsible for this enhanced formation of transmitter is unknown but has been attributed to an increase in the activity of tyrosine hydroxylase (EC 1.14.16.2; tyrosine 3-monooxygenase) during nerve stimulation. In the present experi...
