1961A. K. Cho et al. in Biochem. & Biophys. Res. Communications V. 276 For purposes of rough measurement, a unit was defined as the dose per Kg. which on intravenous injection in mice gave this threshold effect. It proved to be equal to approximately 15 µg. of 2-oxotremorine base. 1970Passmore & Robson Compan. Med. Stud. II. v. 560/2 Another method [of inducing symptoms of Parkinsonism] involves the use of the drug tremorine..or its active metabolite oxotremorine which induce tremor, rigidity, akinesia, analgesia and signs of peripheral cholinergic stimulation in many animal species. 1972Brimblecombe & Pinder Tremors iv. 96 Leslie & Maxwell (1964) first suggested that oxotremorine is a more desirable tool in screening compounds for anti-Parkinson activity than is tremorine. |
