Abstract
► Deficiency in 5-, but not 12/15-, lipoxygenase is associated with reduced striatal dopamine and tyrosine hydroxylase levels. ► 5-Lipoxygenase deficiency protects against nigrostriatal damage from MPTP. ► Diminished inflammatory response is noted in null 5-lipoxygenase vs. wildtype mice after intoxication by MPTP.
