Long-term treatment with levodopa in Parkinson's disease results in the development of motor fluctuations, including reduced duration of antiparkinsonian action and involuntary movements, i.e., levodopa-induced dyskinesia. Cannabinoid receptors are concentrated in the basal ganglia, and stimulation
## Abstract Overactive AMPA receptor‐mediated transmission may be involved in the pathogenesis of levodopa‐induced dyskinesia. The mechanism of action of the anticonvulsant drug topiramate involves attenuation of AMPA receptor‐mediated transmission. In this study, the potential antidyskinetic actio
## Abstract Investigation of the pathophysiology of psychosis in Parkinson's disease (PD), as well as the assessment of potential novel therapeutics, has been limited by the lack of a well‐validated animal model. MPTP‐lesioned primates exhibit abnormal behaviors that are distinct from dyskinesia an
