Evidence exists for a negative correlation between Parkinson's disease and smoking. The present and previous studies indicate that nicotine treatment can markedly alter the 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP)-induced neurotoxicity in the black mouse based on biochemical determination
## Abstract Administration of the neurotoxicant 1βmethylβ4βphenylβ1,2,3,6βtetrahydropyridine (MPTP) to C57BL/6 mice targets nigrostriatal dopaminergic neurons, leading to cell death and the depletion of striatal dopamine. After MPTP lesioning in young adult mice, surviving nigrostriatal dopaminergi
