Nevertheless, Parkin-deficient mice could be more sensitive to other neurotoxins, such as rotenone or MPTP, which have different mechanisms of action; therefore, identifying conditions that precipitate parkinsonism specifically in Parkin-deficient mice would increase the utility of this model and could provide insight into the mechanism of AR-JP.

Mutations of the Park-2 gene are the most frequent cause of familial parkinsonism and parkin knockout (PK-KO) mice have abnormalities that resemble the clinical syndrome.

However, alpha-synuclein gene mutations are rare as opposed to parkin gene mutations (PARK 2), which are frequently found in autosomal recessive and sporadic young onset Parkinson's disease patients.
Several chemical products used in herbicides and pesticides are similar structurally to MPTP, including paraquat, diquat and rotenone.
