Descripción

Application

L-Dopa ethyl ester has been used to study the protective effects of piperlongumine (PLG) on rotenone-induced Parkinson disease (PD).

Biochem/physiol Actions

L-Dopa ethyl ester (L-Dopa) is a dopamine replacement drug. It is used as a potent therapeutic for Parkinson disease (PD). L-Dopa has some long-term side effects, such as the deterioration of motor function.

L-Dopa ethyl ester is a prodrug of levodopa that has greater gastric solubility. The drug is rapidly hydrolyzed to levodopa by nonspecific esterases in the gastrointestinal tract. L-Dopa ethyl ester (etilevodopa)-carbidopa treatment was well tolerated but did not demonstrate better efficacy compared with standard levodopa-carbidopa treatment. L-Dopa ethyl ester should have a significant brain penetration following an administration by injection.
