Protective effects of saffron and its constituent crocetin to motor symptoms, short life span and rough-eyed phenotypes in the fly models of Parkinson’s disease <i>in vivo</i>

2020-12-07

Abstract excerpt

Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a common neurodegenerative disorder with motor symptoms linked to the loss of dopaminergic neurons in the brain. α-Synuclein is an aggregation-prone neural protein that plays a role in the pathogenesis of PD. In our previous paper, we found that saffron; the stigma of Crocus sativus Linné ( Iridaceae ), and its constituents (crocin and crocetin) suppressed aggregation of α-synuclein a...
