Parkinson’s disease (PD) is the second-most abundant neurodegenerative disease, and PD patients have been medicated with levodopa (L-DOPA) for decades. Between 1990 and 2000, a lot of in vitro studies reported neurotoxic effects of the drug, but in vivo studies could never confirm these neurotoxic effects. As a result, L-DOPA remained the gold standard for PD medication. In this study, I investigated the effects of L-DOPA on the central energy metabolism of the LUHMES cell line. For this purpose, I first treated the cells with L-DOPA under normoxic conditions to compare the results with previous studies, which were almost always performed with other in vitro systems. I could confirm the neurotoxic effect of L-DOPA as well as the common mode...
