The mechanism of parkinsonian tremor may involve a central oscillator, peripheral feedback to the central nervous system (CNS), or both. The thalamus or the globus pallidus is the most likely site for a central oscillator and would be predicted to generate thalamic tremor-related activity characteri

Dopamine (DA) neurons exist in two activity states; either spontaneously firing or quiescent and nonfiring. When faced with a behavioral demand, the quiescent DA neurons can be activated to facilitate normal motor output. Levodopa appears to increase DA output by activating these nonfiring neurons;

Degeneration of the nigrostriatal dopaminergic system is the characteristic neuropathological feature of Parkinson's disease and therapy is primarily based on a dopamine replacement strategy. Dopamine has long been recognized to be a key neuromodulator of basal ganglia function, essential for normal
