L-dopa remains the mainstay treatment for Parkinson’s disease (PD), although in
later stages, treatment is complicated by L-dopa-induced dyskinesias (LID).
Current evidence links LID to excessive striatal L-dopa-derived dopamine (DA)
release, while the possibility of a direct involvement of L-dopa itself in LID
has been largely ignored. Here we show that L-dopa can alter basal ganglia
activity and produce LID without enhancing striatal DA release in parkinsonian
non-human primates. These data may have therapeutic implications for the
management of advanced PD since they suggest that LID could result from diverse
mechanisms of action of L-dopa.
