ABSTRACT
Oxidative stress (OS) is a crucial factor influencing the development of Parkinson's disease (PD). Here we first reported that Lindleyin (Lin), one of the major components of rhubarb, possessed neuroprotective effects against H2O2-induced SH-SY5Y cell injury and MPTP-induced PD of C57BL/6 mice. The results showed that Lin can decrease cell death and apoptotic rate induced by H2O2 through inhibiting mitochondrial apoptotic pathway and increasing the activities of SOD, GSH-Px, and CAT as well as decreasing the level of MDA. In addition, in vivo studies showed that oral administration of Lin (5 or 20 mg/kg) showed significant change in motor function deficits, antioxidant enzyme activities, apoptotic pathway, and tyrosine hydroxylase expression. Our results reveal that Lin might be a promising anti-PD agent by reducing OS and apoptosis.
