Central to the neural mechanism of MPTP-induced parkinsonism is overactivity of the subthalamic nucleus. Lesion of the subthalamic nucleus has therefore been performed in two primates with this condition and found to produce a remarkable amelioration of the disorder.
MPTP 诱导的帕金森症神经机制的核心是丘脑底核活动过度。因此,已对两只患有这种病症的灵长类动物进行了丘脑底核损伤,结果发现该病症有显著改善。
