The interactive effects of clorgyline, deprenyl and 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP) on striatal dopamine (DA), serotonin (5HT) and hippocampal norepinephrine (NE) were examined in the present study. Results indicated that clorgyline did not have a preventive effect against MPTP's toxicity on DA and NE, but it had a partial therapeutic effect against subchronic MPTP-induced DA depletion when given with deprenyl together. However, this effect was not significantly different from the effect of deprenyl alone. Co-administration of clorgyline and deprenyl had a satisfactory effect in preventing MPTP-induced NE depletion. On the other hand, in all clorgyline-treated groups, there was a significant increase of 5HT in both the striatum and the hippocampus.

D009638 Norepinephrine Precursor of epinephrine that is secreted by the ADRENAL MEDULLA and is a widespread central and autonomic neurotransmitter. Norepinephrine is the principal transmitter of most postganglionic sympathetic fibers, and of the diffuse projection system in the brain that arises from the LOCUS CERULEUS. It is also found in plants and is used pharmacologically as a sympathomimetic.

D004298 Dopamine One of the catecholamine NEUROTRANSMITTERS in the brain. It is derived from TYROSINE and is the precursor to NOREPINEPHRINE and EPINEPHRINE. Dopamine is a major transmitter in the extrapyramidal system of the brain, and important in regulating movement. A family of receptors (RECEPTORS, DOPAMINE) mediate its action.
