oxidopamine and Facial Asymmetry

oxidopamine has been researched along with Facial Asymmetry in 1 studies

Oxidopamine: A neurotransmitter analogue that depletes noradrenergic stores in nerve endings and induces a reduction of dopamine levels in the brain. Its mechanism of action is related to the production of cytolytic free-radicals.
oxidopamine : A benzenetriol that is phenethylamine in which the hydrogens at positions 2, 4, and 5 on the phenyl ring are replaced by hydroxy groups. It occurs naturally in human urine, but is also produced as a metabolite of the drug DOPA (used for the treatment of Parkinson's disease).

Facial Asymmetry: Congenital or acquired asymmetry of the face.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" The aims of this study were therefore (1) to investigate the anti-dyskinetic effects of piribedil on L-DOPA-induced contralateral turning behaviour, locomotive dyskinesias (LD), axial dystonia (AD), orolingual dyskinesia (OD) and forelimb dyskinesia (FD) and (2) to compare these effects to the α(2) adrenoceptor antagonist, idazoxan, or the α(2) adrenoceptor agonist, clonidine."3.79The effect of piribedil on L-DOPA-induced dyskinesias in a rat model of Parkinson's disease: differential role of α(2) adrenergic mechanisms.
