Do PPAR-Gamma Agonists Have a Future in Parkinson's Disease Therapy? by Anna R. Carta, Augusta Pisanu, Ezio Carboni

“…Here, we review preclinical evidences of PPAR-γ-induced neuroprotection in experimental PD models and highlight relative anti-inflammatory mechanisms involving either central or peripheral immunomodulatory activity. Specific targeting of immune functions contributing to neuroinflammation either directly (central) or indirectly (peripheral) may represent a novel therapeutic approach for disease modifying therapies in PD.…”
