Dynamic DNA Methylation Regulates Levodopa-Induced Dyskinesia
15 Jun 2016
Abstract excerpt
UNLABELLED: Levodopa-induced dyskinesia (LID) is a persistent behavioral sensitization that develops after repeated levodopa (l-DOPA) exposure in Parkinson disease patients. LID is a consequence of sustained changes in the transcriptional behavior of striatal neurons following dopaminergic stimulation. In neurons, transcriptional regulation through dynamic DNA methylation has been shown pivotal to many long-term...
