Abstract

In the brain, metallothionein (MT)-III exhibits a free radical scavenging activity. Here we examined the expression of MT-III mRNA in the basal ganglia of 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA)-lesioned hemi-parkinsonian rats and its regulation by levodopa. The level of MT-III mRNA was significantly decreased in the striatum of 6-OHDA-lesioned side. Levodopa treatment significantly increased the expression of striatal MT-III mRNA in the non-lesioned side, but showed no significant effect in the 6-OHDA-lesioned side. These results suggest that the regulation of MT-III mRNA may be related to the progressive degeneration in parkinsonism.
