Parkinson's disease (PD) is associated with abnormal metabolism of brain cholesterol, and the metabolites of neuronal cholesterol may also affect neurodegenerative progression. In this study, we aim to explore the therapeutic effect of BMSC derived exosomes on motor and cognitive deficits in α-synuclein (α-Syn) A53T transgenic mice, a progressive PD animal model. Results revealed that rotating rod performance of α-Syn A53T TG mice decreased by 45.

Methods: CMECs isolated from the hearts of adult rats were exposed to hypoxia (94% N₂, 5% CO₂, 1% O₂) for 2 h followed by 4 h reoxygenation (95% O₂, 5% CO₂). The cell proliferation of CMECs was measured by MTT assay and Transwell method was used to detect migration ability of CMEC, PI-AnnexinV double staining and flow cytometry technique were employed to observe the apoptotic rate of CMECs.
