n-methyl-3,4-methylenedioxyamphetamine and MPTP Neurotoxicity Syndrome

n-methyl-3,4-methylenedioxyamphetamine has been researched along with MPTP Neurotoxicity Syndrome in 5 studies

N-Methyl-3,4-methylenedioxyamphetamine: An N-substituted amphetamine analog. It is a widely abused drug classified as a hallucinogen and causes marked, long-lasting changes in brain serotonergic systems. It is commonly referred to as MDMA or ecstasy.
3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine : A member of the class of benzodioxoles that is 1,3-benzodioxole substituted by a 2-(methylamino)propyl group at position 5.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" The results demonstrate that chronic administration of MDMA during late adolescence in mice exacerbates the neurodegeneration and neuroinflammation caused by MPTP, suggesting that MDMA may constitute a risk factor for dopaminergic neuron degeneration."1.39MPTP-induced dopamine neuron degeneration and glia activation is potentiated in MDMA-pretreated mice.
