A Current Review of Cypermethrin-Induced Neurotoxicity and Nigrostriatal Dopaminergic Neurodegeneration

TL;DR: Light is shed on cypermethrin-induced changes in the central nervous system, including its contribution in the onset of specific features, which are associated with the nigrostriatal dopaminergic neurodegeneration.
Journal ArticleDOI

Melatonin or silymarin reduces maneb- and paraquat-induced Parkinson’s disease phenotype in the mouse

TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of silymarin, an antioxidant of plant origin, and melatonin, an indoleamine produced in all species, in MB-and PQ-induced mouse model of Parkinson's disease (PD) were investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Long term exposure to cypermethrin induces nigrostriatal dopaminergic neurodegeneration in adult rats: postnatal exposure enhances the susceptibility during adulthood

TL;DR: Investigation of the effects of cypermethrin on biochemical, histopathological, and motor behavioral indices of the nigrostriatal dopaminergic system in adult rats treated with or without cypermEthrin demonstrates that exposure to cypermETHrin during adulthood induces dopamine neurodegeneration in rats and postnatal exposure enhances the susceptibility of animals to dopaminerential neurodegenersation if rechallenged during adulthood.
Journal ArticleDOI

Status of antioxidant defense system and expression of toxicant responsive genes in striatum of maneb- and paraquat-induced Parkinson's disease phenotype in mouse: mechanism of neurodegeneration.

TL;DR: Results obtained from the present investigation suggest the involvement of CYP2E1 and GSTA4-4 in the augmentation of the lipid peroxidation thereby enhancing neurodegeneration.
Journal ArticleDOI

Involvement of Nitric Oxide in Maneb- and Paraquat-Induced Parkinson’s Disease Phenotype in Mouse: Is There Any Link with Lipid Peroxidation?

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that nitric oxide contributes to an increase of MB- and PQ-induced lipid peroxidation in mouse striatum and tyrosine kinase, p38 MAPK and NF-kB regulate iNOS expression.
