Istradefylline on D2R antagonist induced motor impairment.
By Yunmin Ding on 12/07/2018
Assay Type: In Vivo
Species: Mouse

i.p.

Istradefylline from Tocris worked wonderfully. At 3 mg/kg (in suspension in 8% Tween 80 in 0.9% saline), it reversed motor impairment induced by 0.16 mg/kg of the D2R antagonist eticlopride
