Changes in Tyrosine Hydroxylase Activity and Dopamine Synthesis in the Nigrostriatal System of Mice in an Acute Model of Parkinson’s Disease as a Manifestation of Neurodegeneration and Neuroplasticity
The progressive degradation of the nigrostriatal system leads to the development of Parkinson’s disease (PD). The synthesis of dopamine, the neurotransmitter of the nigrostriatal system, depends on the rate-limiting enzyme, tyrosine hydroxylase (TH). In this study, we evaluated the synthesis of dopa...
