The Pharmacological Activity of Garlic (Allium sativum) in Parkinson’s Disease: From Molecular Mechanisms to the Therapeutic Potential

Abstract: Parkinson's disease (PD), one of the most common neurological diseases worldwide, is mainly characterized neuropathologically by the dopaminergic neurodegeneration in the substantia nigra pars compacta of the brainstem. Genetic and environmental factors contribute to PD pathophysiology through modulation of pleiotropic cellular mechanisms. The currently available treatment options focus only on replenishing dopamine and do not alter disease progression. Interestingly, garlic (Allium sativum), globally famed fo… Show more

“…Moreover, it includes protein, carbohydrate and high sulphur and sulphur‐based ingredients (Bocate et al ., 2021). Among these organic sulphur‐based compounds, allicin, known as diallyl thiosulfate, is an essential component of garlic's biological activity and possesses antibacterial qualities (Rakshit et al ., 2023). According to reports, the essential oil extracted from garlic by hydro‐distillation techniques possesses antibacterial and antifungal properties (Li et al ., 2016; El‐Sayed et al ., 2017; Chen et al ., 2018).…”
