Research Abstract |
The purpose of this project is to elucidate an anti-parkinsonian drug. Our group has found that 1 MeTIQ is a very good candidate for the anti-parkinsonian drug. We studied the structure activity relationship for 1MeTIQ derivatives using inhibition of dopaminergic cell toxicity. As the results, 1-benzyl DIQ, an oxidative metabolite of 1-benzyl TIQ, has strong cell toxicity. So the matabolism is very important factor. 7-OH-1MeTIQ has the most potent anti-parkinsonian drug. So it is very suitable candidate for Parkinson's disease.
