Journal ArticleDOI
Plasma levels of the β‐carbolines harman and norharman in Parkinson's disease
TL;DR: Results may suggest a possible role of β‐carbolines in the pathophysiological processes initiating PD, by, e.g., inducing mitochondrial respiratory inhibition like MPP +.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tolcapone increases maximum concentration of levodopa.
TL;DR: A significant increase of Cmax of levodopa after the addition of tolcapone is found, which may represent one cause for the occurrence of dyskinesia previously early in the course of treatment with tol capone.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cysteine elevation in levodopa-treated patients with Parkinson's disease.
TL;DR: Results support the view that LD/DCI intake may also increase cysteine, and associations appeared between tHcys and Cysteine in PD patients, and correlated to LD/ DCI intake and severity of PD.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hyperhomocysteinaemia in treated patients with Huntington's disease homocysteine in HD.

TL;DR: Significantly increased plasma total homocysteine levels appeared in treated Huntington disease patients compared to controls and untreated HD subjects, and it is hypothesized that homocy steine promotes neurodegeneration in HD.
Journal ArticleDOI
Elevated plasma levels of homocysteine in dystonia.
TL;DR: This study investigated relations between plasma homocysteine, age, severity and duration of primary idiopathic torsion dystonia, and found a significant trend for an association between severity of dySTONia and homocy steine.
