Scopoletin Augments DJ1/Nrf2 Signalling and Prevents Protein Aggregation in Parkinson’s disease
2018-02-05
Abstract excerpt
Given the role of oxidative stress in PD pathogenesis and off-target side effects of currently available drugs, several natural phytochemicals seems to be promising in the management of PD. Here, we tested the hypothesis that scopoletin, an active principle obtained from Morinda citrifolia (MC), efficiently quenches oxidative stress through DJ-1/Nrf2 signalling and ameliorates rotenone-induced PD. Despite reducin...
