Rotenone is a pesticide that has been shown to induce the pathological symptoms of Parkinson's disease (PD) in both cellular and animal models. In this study, we investigated the protective effect of Agaricus blazei extract on rotenone-induced dopaminergic degeneration and apoptosis in mice model. A. blazei extract blocked the rotenone-mediated diminution of   dopamine transporter (DAT)  and vesicular monoamine transporter 2 (VMAT 2) expression and  the downregulation of Bcl-2 and the… CONTINUE READING
