Aqueous extract of leaf exerts an anti-inflammatory effect in a murine model of Parkinson's disease induced by 6-OHDA.

Introduction: Parkinson's disease affects 2% of the population aged over 65 years and is the second most common neurodegenerative disorder in the general population. The appearance of motor symptoms is associated with the degeneration of dopaminergic neurons in the nigrostriatal pathway. Clinically significant nonmotor symptoms are also important for severe disability with disease progression.
