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.

“…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. Decreased striatal dopamine levels in these latter rat strains were associated with increased dopamine turnover. …”
