Suppressive Effect of Tetrahydrobiopterin on L-β-( 3,4-Dihydroxyphenyl) alanine-Induced Cytotoxicity in PC-12 Cells

We examined the inhibitory effect of tetrahydrobiopterin (BPH4) on L-β-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)alanine (DOPA)-induced cytotoxicity in PC-12 cells. First in vitro inhibitory efficacy of BPH4 on lipid peroxidation induced by Fe3+-DOPA complex was confirmed by using PC-liposomes. Fe3+-DOPA complex at 50 μ...
