Article Synopsis
- Trehalose is a natural sugar that has shown promising neuroprotective effects in models of neurodegenerative diseases, particularly in protecting neuron health and function.
- Its neuroprotective mechanisms include enhancing autophagy, stabilizing proteins, and reducing oxidative stress by stabilizing cell membranes and improving mitochondrial function.
- Trehalose also reduces neuroinflammation by lowering inflammatory cytokines and could have links to the gut-brain axis, making it a potential candidate for future therapeutic strategies for neurological disorders.
