The lost dopaminergic neurons in the brain prevent mobility Parkinson's disease (PD). It is impossible to stop disease's progress by means of symptoms management. Research focuses on oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, and neuronal degeneration. Exploration potential neuroprotective drugs against prosurvival B-cell lymphoma 2 (Bcl-2) protein ongoing. An investigable cause behind PD, as well preventive measures, could be discovered considering association between such behavioural manifestations (cataleptic behaviours) PD. compound Afzelin, known guard nervous system, was chosen for this study. study done rats divided into six different groups. First, there a control group. other group treated with Reserpine (RES) (1 mg/kg). third received RES mg/kg) levodopa (30 remaining three groups were given conjunction Afzelin at following doses: 5 mg/kg, 10 20 mg/kg. Cataleptic behavior assessed using rotarod, open field, modified forced-swim tests. thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS), nitric oxide (NO), biogenic amines, Bcl-2 level rat tissue homogenates considered. According study's findings, through co-administration improved significantly their cataleptic behaviours locomotor activity. In addition, administering itself caused expression, which have some neuroprotection properties. This provides meaningful information effectiveness handling catalepsy degenerative neurologic disorders. As result, studies need conducted establish reasons reactions determine long-term effects these conditions.

Abstract This study explored the neurogenic and microglial modulatory properties of botulinum toxin in hippocampus aging experimental mice. Therapeutic (BoNT) treatment is widely practiced to reduce excessive discharge acetylcholine (ACh) management neurological deficits. While production new neurons adult brain contributes cognitive functions, age-related diseases with release ACh progressive neuroinflammation have been characterized by impaired hippocampal neurogenesis memory loss. Therefore, we investigated effect BoNT on regulation neurogenesis, focusing doublecortin (DCX)-positive immature We also assessed ionized calcium-binding adapter molecule 1 (Iba1)-positive microglia expression cyclooxygenase (COX)-2, a key inflammatory response element, using reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Results revealed prominent increase DCX-positive cells BoNT-treated animals compared control group. Additionally, reduced number accompanied decreased mRNA COX-2 was evident animals. These dual effects suggest that could be promising therapeutic agent for mitigating neuroregenerative decline responsible impairments.

Abstract NLRP3 inflammasomes-mediated proinflammatory response and mitochondrial dysfunction play a critical role in the etiology pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease. Negative regulation inflammasome activation through mitophagy may be an important strategy to control inflammasome-mediated responses. Palmatine (PAL), isoquinoline alkaloid found various plants, has potent pharmacological effects such as anti-inflammatory anti-oxidation. However, specific PAL pathology disease remains unclear. In this study, we that treatment with improved motor deficits reduced loss dopaminergic neurons MPTP mice. Further results showed promoted inhibited mediated by inflammasomes. addition, chloroquine (CQ, inhibitor) attenuated ameliorative on neuron damage, well inhibitory effect inflammasome. Collectively, these provide strong evidence ameliorates death Parkinson’s disease, mechanism related its inhibition via promoting mitophagy.
