Abstract excerpt

The etiology of Parkinson's disease (PD) remains unclear; however, generation of reactive oxygen species during oxidation of dopamine (DA) could be one of the factors leading to selective loss of nigral dopaminergic neurons in PD. Vesicular monoamine transporter type 2 (VMAT2) proteins in nerve terminals uptake and partition DA from neuronal cytoplasm into synaptic vesicles. Therefore, alterations of VMAT2...
