muscimol and Idiopathic Parkinson Disease

muscimol has been researched along with Idiopathic Parkinson Disease 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.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Lactacystin is a selective UPS inhibitor recently used to destroy dopamine (DA) neurons in animal models of Parkinson's disease (PD)."1.42Decreased behavioral response to intranigrally administered GABAA agonist muscimol in the lactacystin model of Parkinson's disease may result from partial lesion of nigral non-dopamine neurons: comparison to the classical neurotoxin 6-OHDA. ( Czarnecka, A; Kamińska, K; Konieczny, J; Lenda, T; Nowak, P, 2015)
"When haloperidol was administered systemically in conjunction with microinfusion of muscimol into globus pallidus, an increase in nigral dopamine efflux was observed that was significantly greater than that which was produced singly by muscimol microinfusion into globus pallidus or by systemic haloperidol administration."1.32Relative involvement of globus pallidus and subthalamic nucleus in the regulation of somatodendritic dopamine release in substantia nigra is dopamine-dependent. ( Abercrombie, ED; Cobb, WS, 2003)
"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)
