moxonidine: structure given in first source

Parkinsonian Disorders: A group of disorders which feature impaired motor control characterized by bradykinesia, MUSCLE RIGIDITY; TREMOR; and postural instability. Parkinsonian diseases are generally divided into primary parkinsonism (see PARKINSON DISEASE), secondary parkinsonism (see PARKINSON DISEASE, SECONDARY) and inherited forms. These conditions are associated with dysfunction of dopaminergic or closely related motor integration neuronal pathways in the BASAL GANGLIA.

" Although rigidity was reduced by efaroxan (an imidazoline I(1) receptor and alpha(2)-adrenoceptor antagonist) and idazoxan (an imidazoline I(1) and I(2) receptor and alpha(2)-adrenoceptor antagonist), SKF86466 and yohimbine, both of which are alpha(2)-adrenoceptor antagonists with no affinity for imidazoline receptors, also suppressed rigidity, suggesting that activation rather than blockade of imidazoline I(1) receptors contributes to reduction of reserpine-induced muscle rigidity."7.74Imidazoline I(1) receptor-mediated reduction of muscle rigidity in the reserpine-treated murine model of Parkinson's disease.
