Abstract:
Objective To investigate the expressing changes of nitric oxide synthase(NOS) in substantia nigra and striatum of the hemiparkinsonism monkey model.Methods Three hemiparkinsonian rhesus monkey models were induced by injecting 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine(MPTP) unilaterally into the internal carotid artery.The expressing changes of NOS-positive neurons of substantia nigra and striatum in three hemiparkinsonism monkey models and one normal control monkey were observed by using NADPH-diaphorase histochemistry staining method.Results The NOS-positive neurons were increased significantly in the substantia nigra and striatum of MPTP lesioned side of hemiparkinsonian monkey model compared to contralateral side and normal control monkey(all P
