  • inventive compounds such as compound 6a remains to be pinpointed, it is nevertheless evident that the protective effect occurs as a consequence of reducing superoxide, rather than NO content, following exposure of cells to SNP.

  • arylpiperazine dopaminergic ligands prevent NO-induced modulation of cell death-associated signalling pathways, mitochondrial damage, oxidative stress and subsequent apoptosis of neuron-like SH-SY5Y cells. Having in mind the role of mitochondrial aberrations, metabolic imbalance and resulting oxidative stress in development of Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease (Andersen 2004; Sayre 2001 ; Halliwell 2006), arylpiperazine dopaminergic ligands may be suitable candidates for development as potential therapeutics for these and other neurodegenerative conditions.
