Abstract:
Objective To study the effects of nicotine on GDNF and dopamine content in striatum of Parkinson's disease (PD) rats.Methods 6-OHDA was stereoscopically injected to right side of the mesencephic ventral tegmental area (VTA) and substantia nigra pars compacta (SNpc). Nicotine of different dosages was intraperitoneally injected into PD rats.With biochemical,immunohistochemical techniques, we observed the changes of GDNF expression and dopamine content in striatum.Results Nicotine was intraperitoneally injected into PD rat models before or after the operation,striatum GDNF expression and DA content had significant improvement as compared with PD group (P
