To investigate whether the reversible MAO-B inhibitor and sodium channel blocker safinamide impairs glutamate release under parkinsonian conditions in vivo, and this effect is dependent on MAO-B inhibition, safinamide (and rasagiline as a comparator) were administered to 6-hydroxydopamine hemilesioned rats, a model of Parkinson's disease, and haloperidol-treated rats, a model of neuroleptic-induced parkinsonism. A microdialysis probe was implanted in the dopamine-depleted dorsolateral striatum, globus pallidus, subthalamic nucleus or
