The 6-OHDA and acute MPTP models for Parkinson's Disease have been well characterized with the underlying mechanisms of toxicity well understood. Both models are useful in evaluating potential neuroprotective therapies providing the ability to target any differences in motor activities and determine whether a drug differentially affects a specific motor behavior.
