摘要
To examine the mechanisms of the neurotoxicity of 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium (MPP(+)) against dopaminergic neurons, ventral mesencephalic cells from embryonic rats were cultured and exposed to MPP(+) with various antioxidants or glutamate receptor antagonists to investigate the participation of free radicals and glutamate, respectively. Such antioxidants as vitamin E, vitamin C, coenzyme Q(10), and catalase, but neither allopurinol nor superoxide dismutase, alleviated the MPP(+)-induced death of dopaminergic neurons, while glutamate receptor antagonists did not alter MPP(+) neurotoxicity. These findings suggest the participation of free radicals, particularly hydroxyl radicals rather than superoxides, in the process of dopaminergic neuronal death evoked by MPP(+).
