Research Tools for Parkinson’s Disease

A review of the tools for studying Parkinson’s Disease These results show that an antibody to the extracellular domain of the dopamine transporter (DAT) can be used to target midbrain dopaminergic neurons and that Anti-DAT-Saporin may be useful for producing a lesion very similar to the naturally-occurring neural degeneration seen in Parkinson’s Disease (Wiley et

Alzheimer’s Disease models

A review of the tools for creating animal models of Alzheimer’s Disease “192 IgG-saporin binds selectively and irreversibly to low-affinity nerve growth factor receptor interrupting cholinergic neuronal protein synthesis.” “Anti-DBH-SAP allows a selective and gradual lesioning of noradrenergic neurones in the brain stem nucleus locus coeruleus, the primary site of noradrenaline production in the CNS.”
