6-Hydroxydopamine hydrobromide (6-OHDA) is a structural analogue of catecholamines, dopamine and noradrenaline, and exerts its toxic effects on catecholaminergic neurons. The neurotoxin 6-hydroxydopamine continues to constitute a valuable topical tool used chiefly in modeling Parkinson's disease (PD) in the rat [1].
The classical method of intracerebral infusion of 6-Hydroxydopamine hydrobromide, involving a massive destruction of nigrostriatal dopaminergic neurons, is largely used to investigate motor and biochemical dysfunctions in Parkinson's disease [1]
6-Hydroxydopamine hydrobromide undergoes robust auto-oxidation generating cytotoxic H2O2, reactive oxygen species (ROS) and catecholamine quinones which attack endocellular nucleophilic groups [2].
Neurotoxic effects of 6-Hydroxydopamine hydrobromide occur through a two-step mechanism involving accumulation of the toxin into catecholaminergic neurons, followed by alteration of cellular homeostasis and neuronal damage. Intracellular storage of 6-Hydroxydopamine hydrobromide is mediated by the dopamine or noradrenaline membrane transporters (DAT and NAT respectively), which recognize and uptake 6-Hydroxydopamine hydrobromide due to its structural similarity with endogenous catecholamines [3]. 6-Hydroxydopamine hydrobromide is infused unilaterally in the MFB, producing a functional imbalance between the dopaminergic nigrostriatal systems and resulting in motor slowness, indicative of parkinsonian-like akinesia, and typical rotational behaviour in response to dopaminomimetic agents [4].
