Neuroprotective Effects of Cuscutae Semen in a Mouse Model of Parkinson’s Disease

Figure 3

Effect of CS on MPTP-induced behavioral deficits in mice. Mice were pretreated with CS (50, 100, or 200 mg/kg) for six days and then injected with MPTP (20 mg/kg i.p.). The time taken for the mice to turn completely downward ((a); T-turn) and the time taken to reach the floor ((b); T-LA) were recorded. Values are indicated as the mean ± SEM. , compared with the control group, , compared with the MPTP-only treated group.
