[11C]WIN 35,428 (also designated [11C]CFT) is now being used in several positron emission tomography (PET) centers to image dopamine (DA) transporter sites in the mammalian brain. Whether and to what extent in vivo WIN 35,428 binding is influenced by intra-

Alterations of dopamine in striatal presynaptic terminals play an important role in the hypoxic-ischemic (HI) brain injury. Quantification of DAT levels in the presynaptic site using (11)C-N-2-carbomethoxy-3-(4-fluorophenyl)-tropane ((11)C-CFT) with positron emission tomography (PET) was applied in studies for Parkinson's disease.

In order to delineate structural motifs regulating substrate affinity and recognition for the human dopamine transporter (DAT), we assessed [3H]dopamine uptake kinetics and [3H]CFT binding characteristics of COS-7 cells transiently expressing mutant DATs in which the COOH terminus was truncated
We modified an objective behavioral test, namely the food reaching test (FRT), for quantitative assessment of motor performance improved by deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the subthalamic nucleus (STN) in the Parkinsonian monkeys. The symptomatic features and their severity in
