We report the toxic effects of 3,4-dimethoxyphenylethylamine (DMPEA), and tetrahydropapaverine (THP) on the rat nigrostriatal system; THP is a tetrahydroisoquinoline compound which may be derived from DMPEA by conjugation of DMPEA and its oxidative metabolite, dimethoxyphenylacetaldehyde; both are potent inhibitors

Protective effects of quinic acids from Aster scaber on tetrahydropapaveroline (THP)-induced cell toxicity were evaluated in rat C6 glioma cells. Among 4 quinic acid derivatives tested, (-) 4,5-dicaffeoyl quinic acid (QA3) exhibited the highest protective effect against THP-induced cell toxicity.

1. In the present work, the properties of 3-methyl isoquinoline, 3,4-dihydropapaverine, tetrahydropapaverine and tetrahydropapaveroline were compared with those of papaverine and laudanosine. The work includes functional studies on rat isolated aorta contracted with noradrenaline, caffeine or KCl, and a determination

Effects of MPTP-like compounds on mitochondrial respiration, activity of NADH-ubiquinone oxidoreductase (complex I) and on ATP synthesis were reported. Mitochondria prepared from mouse whole brains were used. The compounds tested include tetrahydroisoquinoline (TIQ), tetrahydropapaveroline (THP), tetrahydropapaverine (THPV), and salsolinol. TIQ

Since the discovery of 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP)-induced parkinsonism, it has been postulated that (a) MPTP-like toxin(s) such as 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline (TIQ) may induce Parkinson's disease. As the neuronal degeneration in MPTP-induced parkinsonism is thought to be caused by the inhibition of the
