Disease relevance of Dopamine quinone

 

High impact information on Dopamine quinone

  • Instead, we provide evidence that COX-2 inhibition prevents the formation of the oxidant species dopamine-quinone, which has been implicated in the pathogenesis of PD [2].
  • Striatal dopaminergic neurons showed increased susceptibility to oxidative stress by H(2)O(2), responding with enhanced release of DA and with formation of an unidentified metabolite, which is most likely the toxic dopamine quinone (DAQ) [3].
  • One of the potential targets in brain for dopamine quinone damage is tyrosine hydroxylase, the rate-limiting enzyme in catecholamine biosynthesis [4].
  • Mechanistic studies of melanogenesis: the influence of N-substitution on dopamine quinone cyclization [5].
