Subthalamic nucleotomy alleviates parkinsonism in the 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP)-exposed primate.
Research into the neural mechanisms underlying the symptoms of parkinsonism utilizing the 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP)-exposed primate model have shown that the subthalamic nucleus (STN) occupies a central role. As a logical development of this theory, we have studied the effe...
