[3H]-yohimbine binding sites were quantified in platelets from Parkinsonians with no clinical signs of dysautonomia. Never-treated Parkinsonians had a lower specific binding than control subjects. This alteration was associated with decreased epinephrine-induced platelet aggregation. Treatment with dopaminergic agents induced a significant increment of [3H]-yohimbine binding sites. These results show that Parkinson's disease is associated with a reduced number of peripheral alpha 2 adrenoceptors and that dopaminergic agents induce partial recovery.
