Correlation of MPTP neurotoxicity in vivo with oxidation of MPTP by the brain and blood-brain barrier in vitro in five rat strains by Riachi, Naji J.

“…We then attempted to correlate the differences among rat strains in their susceptibility to MPTP neurotoxicity in vivo with MPTP oxidation by monoamine oxidase (MAO) of the cerebral cortex, striatum, and brain microvessels in vitro. Despite the fact that the carotid route delivers much higher amounts of MPTP to the ipsilateral cerebrum than can be achieved by systemic injections, no significant dopamine depletion occured in ipsilateral striata of Sprague-Dawley rats (the most resistant strain), but significant reductions of about 40% in striatal dopamine were evident in the more sensitive strains. …”

Preclinical impact of bevacizumab on brain and tumor distribution of irinotecan and temozolomide by Milane, Aline

“…Our results show that bevacizumab pre-treatment was associated with a reduced temozolomide brain distribution in tumor-free mice. In tumor bearing mice, bevacizumab increased temozolomide tumor distribution, although not statistically significant. …”
