Fifty male Wistar rats were divided into five groups: control, MTX, and three pretreatment groups receiving ESOM (30 mg/kg), CANA (30 mg/kg), or their combination. ESOM and CANA were administered for 8 days before and 1 day after a single MTX injection (20 mg/kg, intraperitoneally) on day 9 to induce hepatotoxicity.

However, the mechanism of its action has not yet been well investigated. The present study aimed to verify the neuroprotective effect of linagliptin in the rotenone model of Parkinson's disease (PD) and further explore its potential molecular mechanisms.

The goal of this study was to see whether ferulic acid has any neuroprotective benefits on the cerebellum of rats that have Parkinson's disease brought on by rotenone poisoning. A total of twenty-four male albino rats, in good condition, weighed between 200 and 250 g and nine to ten weeks old, were employed in the investigation.

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder. While, fluvoxamine (FVX) is an antidepressant and widely prescribed to ASD patients, clinical results are inconclusive and the mechanism of FVX in the management of ASD is unclear. This study determined the potential therapeutic impact of FVX, a sigma-1 receptor (S1R) agonist, against the valproic acid (VPA)-induced model of autism.
