National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD 20892.

The partial dopamine agonist terguride (transdihydrolisuride) administered to four 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP) lesioned hemiparkinsonian monkeys (at a dose of 4 mg/kg orally) induced marked contralateral turning that lasted 3.5 h. The 6-n-propyl derivative of terguride (proterguride) given to two monkeys (at a dose of 0.4 mg/kg orally) caused contralateral turning which lasted for more than 24 h but produced side effects such as dyskinesia and stereotype. After terguride treatment, cerebrospinal fluid concentrations of 3-methoxy-4-hydroxy-phenylglycol (MHPG) were increased, whereas concentrations of the metabolites dihydroxyphenylacetic acid (DOPAC), homovanillic acid (HVA), and 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid (5-HIAA) were not significantly altered.

D008090	Lisuride	An ergot derivative that acts as an agonist at dopamine D2 receptors (DOPAMINE AGONISTS). It may also act as an antagonist at dopamine D1 receptors, and as an agonist at some serotonin receptors (SEROTONIN RECEPTOR AGONISTS).

D010302	Parkinson Disease, Secondary	Conditions which feature clinical manifestations resembling primary Parkinson disease that are caused by a known or suspected condition. Examples include parkinsonism caused by vascular injury, drugs, trauma, toxin exposure, neoplasms, infections and degenerative or hereditary conditions. Clinical features may include bradykinesia, rigidity, parkinsonian gait, and masked facies. In general, tremor is less prominent in secondary parkinsonism than in the primary form.
