Parkinson disease (PD) is a prevalent neurodegenerative disorder associated with aging. Current treatments for PD primarily focus on alleviating symptoms rather than altering the progression of the disease. The sporadic form of PD, which accounts for most cases, is thought to arise from a complex interaction between genetic predispositions and environmental factors. This review aimed to examine epidemiologic evidence regarding nutrition-related exposure factors and their associations with risk of developing PD. We proposed a tentative conclusion for each factor based on the available evidence. These associations may vary by gender and depend on dietary intake patterns and adherence. We also reviewed clinical trials on nutrition-related interventions for PD symptoms and progression. Future clinical trials may benefit from combining nutrition factors in intervention and testing within single-gender cohorts or subgroups defined by epidemiologic outcomes.

The release of synaptic vesicles (SVs) at the synaptic junction is a complex process involving various specialized proteins that work in unison. Among these, Bassoon has emerged as a significant protein, particularly noted for its association with various neurological and aging-related diseases. Due to its structural and functional roles, Bassoon has become a focus of recent research, especially in understanding its implications in neurodegenerative and psychiatric disorders.

Hemispheric asymmetry in neurodegenerative diseases.

Hemispheric asymmetry in pathologic involvement is frequently observed in neurodegenerative disorders (NDD) and is responsible for differences in cognitive and motor clinical manifestations in individual patients. While asymmetry is modest in typical Alzheimer disease (AD), atypical AD presentations with prominent language impairment [logopenic/phonologic variant of primary progressive aphasia (L/Phv-PPA)] are associated with prevalent involvement of the language-dominant hemisphere. Similarly, in the frontotemporal dementia-amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (FTD-ALS) spectrum, the semantic (Sv) and nonfluent/agrammatic (Nf/Av) variants of PPA are due to asymmetric pathology involving the language-dominant hemisphere.

Electronic address:

Parkinson's disease (PD), a movement disorder caused by dopaminergic degeneration in the midbrain, has been induced in various organisms after injection of different neurotoxins, such as rotenone (ROT), which affect mitochondrial complex I. Due to the conserved characteristics of ascidians, these animals constitute an interesting model for comparative and genetic studies of neurodegenerative diseases. In this study, we investigated the effects of ROT on the ascidian nervous system, evaluating apoptosis, catecholaminergic enzymes, behavioral deficits, and mitochondrial dysfunction.

Ethnopharmacological Relevance: Parkinson's disease (PD) is one of the most common neurodegenerative disorders, yet effective therapeutic options remain limited. Dendrobium huoshanense (DH), a medicinal and edible herb mainly distributed in Ta-pieh Mountains of Central China, has been used to treat disorders of consciousness and chronic nervous diseases in the local hospital for thousands of years. Erianin, a bioactive bibenzyl compound isolated from DH, has emerged as a potential neuroprotective agent due to its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties.
