16510128 Patel S, Singh V, Kumar A, Gupta YK, Singh MP: Status of antioxidant defense system and expression of toxicant responsive genes in striatum of maneb- and paraquat-induced Parkinson's disease phenotype in mouse: mechanism of neurodegeneration. Brain Res. 2006 Apr 7;1081(1):9-18. Epub 2006 Feb 28.

The present study was therefore undertaken to investigate the mechanism of maneb- and paraquat-induced neurodegeneration by estimating the level of antioxidant defense enzymes in the striatum and measuring the differential expressions of CYP2E1 and GSTA4-4 genes.

Transcript quantitations showed the following: (i) gender-related differences in the expression of most Cyp and Gst genes; (ii) one PS female displaying much smaller/larger transcript amounts than the remaining females; (iii) the concomitant up-regulation of Cyp1a2, Cyp2a5, Cyp2e1, Cyp4a10, Gsta1, Gsta2, Gstm1, and Gstm2 mRNAs in liver of PS males; and (iv) outstanding qualitative and quantitative differences between the hepatic expression signature of PS males and that promoted by paraquat.
