The introduction of drugs with antipsychotic activity in the 1950s allowed the treatment of schizophrenia symptoms, such as delusions and hallucinations. The chronicity of these treatments induces extrapyramidal effects such as tardive dyskinesia, characterized by involuntary and stereotyped orofacial movements of great functional and social impact. Tardive dyskinesia has been the subject…
Schizophrenia is a chronic mental disorder characterized by positive symptoms (hallucinations, delusions, disordered thinking, and psychomotor agitation), negative symptoms (avolition, anhedonia, social isolation) and cognitive symptoms (deficits in memory and attention). The antipsychotics, classified as typical and atypical, show different efficacy to treat schizophrenia symptoms. Mostl…
Animals treated with reserpine, whose mechanism of action is the depletion of monoamines by the inhibition of their vesicular transporter, develop an orofacial hyperkinetic manifestation that shows similarity to both tardive dyskinesia induced by chronic treatment with haloperidol (typical antipsychotic) and changes induced by L-DOPA. Our pioneering studies have revealed that pharmacologi…
Neuroinflammation process is characterized by interaction between neurons and cells of immune system, such as cytokines, chemokines, inflammatory cells, matrixmetalloproteinases (MMPs), reactive oxygen species (ROS) and glial cells. This neuroimmune interaction is presents in Schizophrenia and Parkinson's disease (PD).Parkinson's disease is the second most common neurodegenerative disorde…
