(2013•东北三省四市第一次联 考)A single night of taking the drug Ecstasy(摇头丸) can cause serious brain damage and speed up the start of Parkinson's disease, scientists say. Just two or three Ecstasy tablets can permanently destroy brain cells that affect movement and reasoning, according to American research that links the drug to Parkinson's for the first time.
A study by a team at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, Maryland, involving squirrel monkeys and baboons (狒狒) found that both species suffered permanent damage to key cells, which are lost in Parkinson's, after receiving three low doses(剂量) of Ec stasy at three-hour periods.
