dihydroxyphenylalanine and Supranuclear Palsy, Progressive

dihydroxyphenylalanine has been researched along with Supranuclear Palsy, Progressive in 14 studies

Dihydroxyphenylalanine: A beta-hydroxylated derivative of phenylalanine. The D-form of dihydroxyphenylalanine has less physiologic activity than the L-form and is commonly used experimentally to determine whether the pharmacological effects of LEVODOPA are stereospecific.
dopa : A hydroxyphenylalanine carrying hydroxy substituents at positions 3 and 4 of the benzene ring.

Supranuclear Palsy, Progressive: A degenerative disease of the central nervous system characterized by balance difficulties; OCULAR MOTILITY DISORDERS (supranuclear ophthalmoplegia); DYSARTHRIA; swallowing difficulties; and axial DYSTONIA. Onset is usually in the fifth decade and disease progression occurs over several years. Pathologic findings include neurofibrillary degeneration and neuronal loss in the dorsal MESENCEPHALON; SUBTHALAMIC NUCLEUS; RED NUCLEUS; pallidum; dentate nucleus; and vestibular nuclei. (From Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, pp1076-7)

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"When all three categories of Parkinson's disease, MSA, and SRO were considered together, clinical and 18F-dopa PET findings correlated in 64% of patients assigned a diagnosis of Parkinson's disease and 70% of those given a diagnosis of SRO; MSA was less readily discriminated, patients with MSA being assigned to MSA, Parkinson's disease, and SRO groups with equal frequency."1.29Differential diagnosis of Parkinson's disease, multiple system atrophy, and Steele-Richardson-Olszewski syndrome: discriminant analysis of striatal 18F-dopa PET data. ( Brooks, DJ; Burn, DJ; Sawle, GV, 1994)
"21 patients who had Parkinson's disease (PD), PD plus dementia of Alzheimer type (PDAT) or progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), were studied with positron emission tomography (PET) using (18F)-2-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose (FDG)."1.28Positron emission tomography in degenerative disorders of the dopaminergic system. ( Heiss, WD; Herholz, K; Holthoff, V; Huber, M; Karbe, H; Wagner, R; Wienhard, K, 1992)
"While the Parkinson's disease patients had a decreased uptake of [18F]fluorodopa in the striatum but no abnormality in the glucose metabolism."1.28Positron emission tomography (PET) in "pure akinesia". ( Fujii, N; Goto, I; Hasuo, K; Hosokawa, S; Ichiya, Y; Kato, M; Kuwabara, Y; Otsuka, M; Taniwaki, T, 1992)
"As a group, the patients with progressive supranuclear palsy had reduced 6-FD uptake constants."1.28Positron emission tomography in progressive supranuclear palsy. ( Bhatt, MH; Calne, DB; Martin, WR; Peppard, R; Snow, BJ, 1991)
