The Influence of on Levodopa-Induced Dyskinesia.

Background: Dopamine deficiency causes Parkinson's disease (PD), and on treatment, levodopa is the gold standard. Various drug-metabolizing enzymes and drug receptors are believed to be involved in prompting dyskinesias due to the extended usage of levodopa. Shreds of evidence in genomic studies have presented that ADORA2A receptor antagonism has beneficial outcomes to avoid these drug-induced side effects.
