INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an Image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it Is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find B good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation. Silver prints of "photographs" may be ordered at additional charge by writing the Order Department, giving the catalog number, title, author and specific pages you wish reproduced. 5. PLEASE NOTE: Some pages may have indistinct print. Filmed as received.

Studies by Porter and Stone» in the early sixties» of the pharmacological effects of 6-OHDA indicated that unlike other catecholamines it was capable of causing a long term depletion of norepinephrine (NE) from the hearts of dogs and mice [3»4]* This NE depletion was later shown to be ouite general for NE stores in a number of tissues and animals though when injected peripherally 6-OHDA caused no depletion centrally [5»6]« This depletion of NE was dose dependent» low doses (1-3 mg/kg i.v.) caused only temporary depletion 1 2 while larder doses <100 md/ka) caused déplacement and lond term depletion Z71* The depletion of NE by a variety of false neurotransmitters had been well established but the lond lastind depletion caused by 6-OHDA was unioue. This lond term depletion was postulated by Porter and coworkers to ^rise from the ability of 6-OHDA to destroy or irreversibly alter NE bindind sites C33* Shortly thereafter it was shown that 6-OHDA in larde doses caused destruction of the adrenerdic neuron ultrastucture stained for visualization by flourescence spectroscopy [7,8,9], This destruction of neurons by 6-OHDA was shown to be confined to the nerve terminal and had very little effect, except in neonatal mice and rats CIO], on the axon and neuron cell body C8], The specificity of neurotoxicity was shown to be unioue for catecholamine containind neurons, no destuction of cholinerdic neurons or other tissue was observed [8,9]« This same specificity of neurodestuction was shown to be true for the central nervous system [11], While 6-OHDA did not cause neurodestruction of the central neurons when injected peripherally its central application produced a similar lond lastind depletion of dopamine and norepinephrine. No depletion of cholinerdic neurons was noted and serotonerdic fibres showed very little effect. Table 1, C12], Some selectivity is observed between destruction of dopaminerdic and adrenerdic fibres allowind for specificity in central sympathectamy, Table 1 Effect of 6-OHDA on catecholamines and serotonin in the brains of rats (injection of 200 md of 6-OHDA 2 days before sacrifice)« Controls 6-OHDA injected ud/d ud/d % control Dopamine 0*85 0*58 68 Norepinephrine 0*54 0*19 35 Serotonin 0*49 0*43 88 The selectivity of the neurotoxicity peripherally and centrally was shown to be due to the hidhly specific uptake of 6-OHDA into adrenerdic and dopaminerdic neurons C131* That uptake is reouisite for neurotoxicity was demonstrated by the prevention of 6-OHDA induced neurodestruction by pretreatment with uptake blockers such as imipramine and cocaine [14fl5]* This explained why cell bodies and axons» which do not possess uptake mechanisms for 6-OHDA were not subject to destruction* Whether concentration of 6-OHDA into the neuronal granules is reouisite for its neurotoxicity is not clear* Pretreatment with reserpine did not prevent neuronal destruction by 6-0HDA» an indication that dranular concentration is not necessary C161* However it has been shown that 6-OHDA is be concentrated to a small extent in the amine containind granules by a reserpine resistant mechanism [171* As well as havind presynaptic actions 6-OHDA also may effect the postsynaptic receptor* Pretreatment with 6-OHDA caused a decrease in the pressor response of isolated perfused rat mesenteric arteries to NE [18»19], Responses to calcium chloride and KCl were normal, indicating a specific rather than deneral depression.
