D-DOPA - CAS 5796-17-8
D-DOPA (CAS 5796-17-8) is an enantiomer of the dopamine precursor L-DOPA. It can be converted to L-DOPA via sequential oxidation and transamination, which are mediated by D-amino acid oxidase (DAAO) and DOPA transaminase, respectively, in rat kidney homogenates.It reduces the number of dopaminergic neurons in primary rat embryonic mesencephalic cultures in a concentration-dependent manner. Intraventricular administration of D-DOPA (200 µg/animal) increases striatal dopamine levels in rats. D-DOPA (20 mg/kg, i.p.) induces contralateral turns in a rat model of Parkinson's disease induced by 6-OHDA.
