Brain cyclic nucleotide responses to anesthesia with halothane delivered in air or purified oxygen.

abstract：:Mouse models of MPTP intoxication have been used extensively to explore the molecular mechanisms of Parkinson's disease. However, these models present some limitations since; (i) Dopaminergic (DA) cell death occurs rapidly in contrast to the presumably slow evolution of the disease process. (ii) Some of the key histol...
