Microdialysis was used to evaluate the effect of desferrioxamine (DES) against 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium (MPP+) toxicity. The presence of DES (40 fmol-40 nmol/15 min for a total of 90 min) in the Ringer solution, coperfused with MPP+ (40 nmol/15 min) on day 1, produced on day 2 a higher extracellular dopamine output after perfusion of MPP+ than in control MPP+ perfusion experiments, in which no DES was administered on day 1. Both Ringer perfusion alone (control Ringer) and coperfusion of 40 nmol DES with 40 nmol MPP+ on day 1 produced on day 2 similar increases in extracellular dopamine output after a second MPP+ perfusion. In the control Ringer experiment, note that the MPP+ on day 2 is the first MPP+ perfusion. Perfusion of 800 fmol FeCl3/15 min along with 40 nmol MPP+ and 400 fmol DES on day 1 completely abolished on day 2 the neuroprotective effect found with 40 nmol MPP+ and 400 fmol DES; 800 fmol FeCl3 did not increase the neurotoxic effect of 40 nmol MPP+ perfusion. The ability of DES to protect against MPP+ toxicity may indicate a therapeutic strategy in the treatment of diseases when iron is implicated.
