Cinnamaldehyde attenuates dopaminergic neuronal loss in substantia nigra and induces midbrain catalase activity in a mouse model of Parkinson’s disease

Background and Objective: Parkinson's disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disease after Alzheimer's disease that affects 3% of the population. PD involves a progressive degeneration of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra pars compacta (SNc) and subsequent loss of dopamine. Dopamine depletion leads to movement dysfunction and is accompanied with tremor, rigid muscle...

Strength-endurance training with olive oil consumption on motor performance and oxidative stress level in the brain of male parkinsonian rats.

Introduction: Parkinson's disease is a chronic brain disorder that occurs as a result of the loss, reduction or damage of dopamine-producing nerve cells in the substantia nigra located in the midbrain. The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of 8 weeks of strength-endurance training with olive oil consumption on motor performance and oxidative stress level in the brain of male park...

Motor disturbances and thalamic electrical power of frequency bands' improve by grape seed extract in animal model of Parkinson's disease

Objective: Previous studies showed that grape seed extract (GSE) is an excellent natural substance with potent antioxidant effect and free radical scavenger. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of GSE on motor dysfunctions and thalamic local Electroencephalography (EEG) frequency bands' powers in rats with Parkinson's disease (PD). Materials and Methods: In this study 8 µg 6-hydroxydopamin...

The effect of circuit resistance training on body composition and physical function in patients with Parkinson's disease

Introduction: Parkinson's disease is the second age-related neurodegenerative disease that is clinically characterized by motor and non-motor symptoms. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of circuit resistance training on motor neuromuscular function in patients with Parkinson's disease. Materials and Methods: In this semi-experimental research, 20 patients with Parkinson's di...

A new model to study compensatory mechanisms in MPTP-treated monkeys exhibiting recovery.

The cardinal symptoms in Parkinson's disease (PD), akinesia, rigidity and tremor, are only observed when the striatal level of dopamine is decreased by 60-80%. During the preclinical phase of PD, compensatory mechanisms are probably involved in delaying the appearance of motor symptoms. In a MPTP (1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine) monkey model of PD, a spontaneous recovery has been ...
