Impaired PGC-1α function in muscle in Huntington's disease

TL;DR: Findings show that impaired function of PGC-1alpha plays a critical role in muscle dysfunction in Huntington's disease, and that treatment with agents to enhance P GC-1 alpha function could exert therapeutic benefits, and muscle may provide a readily accessible tissue in which to monitor therapeutic interventions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Neuroprotective and neurorescue effect of black tea extract in 6-hydroxydopamine-lesioned rat model of Parkinson's disease.

TL;DR: Results suggest that BTE exerts both neuroprotective and neurorescue effects against 6-OHDA-induced degeneration of the nigrostriatal dopaminergic system, suggesting that possibly daily intake of BTE may slow down the PD progression as well as delay the onset of neurodegenerative processes in PD.
Journal ArticleDOI

Olfactory ensheathing cell transplantation restores functional deficits in rat model of Parkinson's disease: a cotransplantation approach with fetal ventral mesencephalic cells

TL;DR: Cotransplantation of OECs and VMC may be a better approach for functional restoration in 6-OHDA-induced rat model of Parkinson's disease, which was assessed using neurobehavioral, neurochemical, and immunohistochemical approach.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mosquito repellent (pyrethroid-based) induced dysfunction of blood-brain barrier permeability in developing brain.

TL;DR: Pyrethroid‐based mosquito repellents (MR) are commonly used to protect humans against mosquito vector and the neurotoxicity caused by MR has aroused concern among public regarding their use.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nerve growth factor increases survival of dopaminergic graft, rescue nigral dopaminergic neurons and restores functional deficits in rat model of Parkinson's disease

TL;DR: The results suggest that NGF at the time of transplantation exhibits neuroprotective effect on transplanted VMC as well as neurorescue effect on remaining host nigral dopaminergic neurons, leading to better functional restoration.
