A pharmacological study using monkeys, in which parkinsonism was induced by 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP), was undertaken to elucidate the mechanism underlying urinary bladder dysfunctions in Parkinson's disease. Under ketamine anesthesia, cystometrograms showed that, in MPTP-treated monkeys, a contraction of the urinary

Activity of entopeduncular neurons was studied in chronic experiments on cats during performance of instrumental movement: pedal pressing and holding. One-hundred and twenty-four neurons were extracellularly investigated in intact animals and 81 neurons in cats treated with N-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP) (5
