quinolinic acid and Movement Disorders

quinolinic acid has been researched along with Movement Disorders in 9 studies

Quinolinic Acid: A metabolite of tryptophan with a possible role in neurodegenerative disorders. Elevated CSF levels of quinolinic acid are correlated with the severity of neuropsychological deficits in patients who have AIDS.
pyridinedicarboxylic acid : Any member of the class of pyridines carrying two carboxy groups.
quinolinic acid : A pyridinedicarboxylic acid that is pyridine substituted by carboxy groups at positions 2 and 3. It is a metabolite of tryptophan.

Movement Disorders: Syndromes which feature DYSKINESIAS as a cardinal manifestation of the disease process. Included in this category are degenerative, hereditary, post-infectious, medication-induced, post-inflammatory, and post-traumatic conditions.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" With the intent of producing a more reliable behavioral model of Huntington disease, anatomically-defined lesions of limited size were produced by magnetic resonance imaging-guided stereotaxic injection of quinolinic acid in specific regions within the caudate and putamen of rhesus monkeys."3.69Selective putaminal excitotoxic lesions in non-human primates model the movement disorder of Huntington disease. ( Brownell, AL; Burns, LH; Deacon, TW; Isacson, O; Jenkins, BG; Pakzaban, P; Tatter, SB, 1995)
"These are astrocytosis, up-regulation of mRNA encoding the neuropeptide somatostatin (SRIF) and an increased expression of MHC Class II antigen."2.39Neuronal substrates for SIV encephalopathy. ( da Cunha, A; Eiden, LE; Rausch, DM, 1994)
" Following baseline, rats were subjected to chronic administration (18 day) or acute injection of quinolinic acid (QUIN) or vehicle to the striatum contralateral to the preferred limb."1.30Time-course analysis and comparison of acute and chronic intrastriatal quinolinic acid administration on forelimb reaching deficits in the rat. ( Albin, RL; Bauter, MR; Bazzett, T; Legnard, E, 1999)
