Parkinson's disease patients suffer from both motor and nonmotor impairments. There is currently no cure for Parkinson's disease, and the most commonly used treatment, levodopa, only functions as a temporary relief of motor symptoms. Inhibition of the expression of the L-tryptophan-catabolizing enzyme tryptophan 2,3-dioxygenase (TDO) has been shown to inhibit aging-related α-synuclein toxicity in Caenorhabditis elegans. To evaluate TDO inhibition as a potential therapeutic strategy for Parkinson's disease, a brain-penetrable, small m
