Abstract

Background: Over 10 million people worldwide are affected by the chronic neurodegenerative condition of Parkinson's disease. Dopaminergic neurons in the Substantia Nigra area of the brain are gradually lost as a result. Herbal medicine, which have its roots in ancient cultures, uses medicinal herbs to treat illnesses and advance general health. There is considerable interest in researching the possibilities of herbal medicine for treating neurodegenerative diseases like Parkinson's disease because they are thought to be safer than synthetic medications. Objective: The objective of this article is to investigate the potential of herbal medications as a treatment option for Parkinsonism, and to provide a clear understanding of the current state of research on this topic. Conclusion: This review focuses on herbal treatments and components that have demonstrated promise in Parkinson's disease in vitro and animal models. This information can be used to identify prospective traditional medicine prescription therapies. New therapeutic treatments for Parkinson's disease may result from further study of pharmaceutical components with well-established therapeutic potential.

探索中草药治疗帕金森病的疗效：微型综述

背景：全世界有 1000 多万人受到帕金森病这一慢性神经退行性疾病的影响。大脑黑质下区的多巴胺能神经元会因此逐渐丧失。草药起源于古代文化，利用药用草药来治疗疾病和促进人体健康。由于中草药被认为比合成药物更安全，因此人们对研究中草药治疗帕金森病等神经退行性疾病的可能性产生了浓厚的兴趣：本文旨在研究中草药作为治疗帕金森病的一种选择的潜力，并提供对这一主题研究现状的清晰认识：结论：这篇综述侧重于在体外和动物模型中证明有望治疗帕金森病的草药疗法和成分。这些信息可用于确定未来的传统医学处方疗法。对具有公认治疗潜力的药物成分进行进一步研究，可能会产生新的帕金森病治疗方法。
