reserpine and Cerebellar Ataxia

reserpine has been researched along with Cerebellar Ataxia in 1 studies

Reserpine: An alkaloid found in the roots of Rauwolfia serpentina and R. vomitoria. Reserpine inhibits the uptake of norepinephrine into storage vesicles resulting in depletion of catecholamines and serotonin from central and peripheral axon terminals. It has been used as an antihypertensive and an antipsychotic as well as a research tool, but its adverse effects limit its clinical use.

Cerebellar Ataxia: Incoordination of voluntary movements that occur as a manifestation of CEREBELLAR DISEASES. Characteristic features include a tendency for limb movements to overshoot or undershoot a target (dysmetria), a tremor that occurs during attempted movements (intention TREMOR), impaired force and rhythm of diadochokinesis (rapidly alternating movements), and GAIT ATAXIA. (From Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, p90)

"From these results, it appears that cerebellar ataxia in RMN does not result from a decrease in the TRH, which is actually increased in the cerebellum."1.27Studies on thyrotropin releasing hormone in cerebellar ataxia mutant mouse brain. ( Fukuma, N; Nihei, N, 1986)
