04/27/2007 - "2-Methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-beta-carboline (2-Me-THbetaC) and 2,9-dimethyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-beta-carboline (2,9-diMe-THbetaC) are naturally occurring analogs of the Parkinsonian neurotoxin 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP), whereas their corresponding aromatic 2-methyl-beta-carbolinium cations resemble 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium (MPP(+)) and are considered potential toxins involved in Parkinson's disease (PD).
