title: Cyclohexyladenosine reduces MPTP induced tremor in dogs.
abstract: Male dogs were injected i.v. with 1 methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydro- pyridine (MPTP) 2.5 mg/kg twice with an interval of 6 days. Twenty minutes after MPTP injection cyclohexyladenosine (CHA) 1 mg/kg i.v. was injected. Ten minutes after CHA injection the MTPT induced tremor, tachycardia and salviation ceased.
