Melatonin, protocatechuic acid and hydroxytyrosol effects on vitagenes system against alpha-synuclein toxicity

Preventing the abnormal assembly of α-synuclein (α-Syn) and the correct modulation of vitagenes system exercise strong neuroprotective effects. It has been reported that melatonin (MEL), protocatechuic acid (PCA) and hydroxytyrosol (HT) reduce α-Syn toxicity. Their effect on the vitagenes system of PC12 cells have not been explored yet. These bioactive can cross the blood brain barrier (BBB). Therefore, this work aims to evaluate the inhibitory...
