متن کاملProduction of L-DOPA(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl-L-alanine) from benzene by using a hybrid pathway.
As an alternative approach to the production of L-DOPA from a cheap raw material, we constructed a hybrid pathway consisting of toluene dioxygenase, toluene cis-glycol dehydrogenase, and tyrosine phenol-lyase. In this pathway, catechol is formed from benzene through the sequential action of toluene dioxygenase and toluene cis-glycol dehydrogenase, and L-DOPA is synthesized from the resulting ca...
متن کاملHypotension caused by L-dopa.
In 20 patients with idiopathic Parkinsonism maximum tolerated doses of L-dopa were found to induce a mean reduction in blood pressure (erect systolic) of 19.3 mm.Hg, without any significant change in pulse rate. This hypotension may be due to dopamine, acting on adrenergic nerve endings or on the central nervous system itself.
متن کاملl-Dopa induced dyskinesias in Parkinsonian mice: Disease severity or l-Dopa history
In Parkinson's disease, the efficacy of l-Dopa treatment changes over time, as dyskinesias emerge with previously beneficial doses. Using MitoPark mice, that models mitochondrial failure in dopamine (DA) neurons and mimics the progressive loss of dopamine observed in Parkinson's disease, we found that the severity of DA denervation and associated adaptations in striatal neurotransmission at the...
