muscimol and Dyskinesia, Drug-Induced

muscimol has been researched along with Dyskinesia, Drug-Induced in 16 studies

Muscimol: A neurotoxic isoxazole isolated from species of AMANITA. It is obtained by decarboxylation of IBOTENIC ACID. Muscimol is a potent agonist of GABA-A RECEPTORS and is used mainly as an experimental tool in animal and tissue studies.
muscimol : A member of the class of isoxazoles that is 1,2-oxazol-3(2H)-one substituted by an aminomethyl group at position 5. It has been isolated from mushrooms of the genus Amanita.

Dyskinesia, Drug-Induced: Abnormal movements, including HYPERKINESIS; HYPOKINESIA; TREMOR; and DYSTONIA, associated with the use of certain medications or drugs. Muscles of the face, trunk, neck, and extremities are most commonly affected. Tardive dyskinesia refers to abnormal hyperkinetic movements of the muscles of the face, tongue, and neck associated with the use of neuroleptic agents (see ANTIPSYCHOTIC AGENTS). (Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, p1199)

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"In patients with Parkinson's disease, neurones in the STN display hyperactive firing rates and rhythmic discharge activity such as tremor-related oscillations (3-8 Hz) and synchronous high-frequency oscillations (15-30 Hz)."1.31Lidocaine and muscimol microinjections in subthalamic nucleus reverse Parkinsonian symptoms. ( Dostrovsky, JO; Hutchison, WD; Lang, AE; Levy, R; Lozano, AM; Pahapill, P; Romas, J; Saint-Cyr, J, 2001)
" While numerous reports of the partial effectiveness of acute treatment with cholinergic or GABAergic agents have appeared, the effects of chronic administration of these substance are unclear."1.26Symptomatic treatment of tardive dyskinesia: a word of caution. ( Kucharski, LT; Unterwald, EM, 1981)
"Muscimol, thought to be a agonist of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), was administered to eight neuroleptic-free subjects with tardive dyskinesia."1.26Improvement in tardive dyskinesia after muscimol therapy. ( Chase, TN; Crayton, JW; Tamminga, CA, 1979)
