Function and effect
Levodopa is the treatment of paralysis agitans one of the effective drugs for the synthesis of norepinephrine, dopamine, one of the precursors of catecholamines. L-dopa can enter the brain through the blood-brain barrier, by Dama decarboxylase decarboxylation into dopamine and play a role. But markedly slower, side effects.
Effective treatment of paralysis agitans drugs, mainly for Parkinson's syndrome.
Levodopa Application:
Levodopa is used to increase dopamine levels for the treatment of Parkinson's disease and dopamine-responsive dystonia, since it is able to cross the blood-brain barrier, whereas dopamine itself cannot. Once levodopa has entered the central nervous system (CNS), it is metabolized to dopamine by aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase. Pyridoxal phosphate (vitamin B6) is a required cofactor for this decarboxylation, and may be administered along with levodopa, usually as pyridoxine.
Levodopa's ramification dopamine is a kind of important nervetransmitter. Dopamine can not pass the brain blood barrier and enter into brain tissue, But levodopa can do this,and form into dopamine in brain tissue.It fianlly increas ethe dopamine content and obtain the therapy efficacy of Parkinsonism.
Levodopa also has many other functions, like treatment of crura active syndrome,liver stupor,cobalt toxicosis,manganese toxicosis,and lunacy,heart failure,canker, alopecia, accommodate sexual function etc.
Further more,research discovers that levodopa has a peculiar function on anti-caducity.In Japan researchers use tyrosinase to transform L-tyrosine,through levodopa's oxidation and producing melanin,and sell it as a hair dye commodity.
Levodopa is a kind of aminophenol ramification with prominence efficacy on medication,health care aspect etc.
