    Glatiramir acetate (Copaxone) causes restoration of the striatal dopamine in a progressive MPTP mouse model of Parkinson’s disease

    C.K. Meshul, M.J. Churchill (Portland, OR, USA)

    Objective: To assess if a microglial modulator, Glatiramer Acetate (GA), can restore loss of striatal dopamine (DA) and behavioral deficits following progressive 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6 tetrahydropyridine (MPTP)…
