| Research Abstract |
Zonisamide is an anti-epileptic drug, and it can be used for treatment of Parkinson disease(PD). However, the pharmacological mechanisms underlying the anti-parkinsonian effects remain unclear. In the present study, we performed animal experiments using experimental tremor models, and could obtain data suggesting that not only zonisamide but also the other T-type calcium channel blockers have the anti-tremor effect. It is expected that T-type calcium channel would be a new therapeutic target of tremors.
