Abstract

Quercetin, a natural antioxidant, exhibits potential neuroprotective effects by efficiently downregulating α-synuclein protein aggregation and associated neurological hallmarks, responsible for the progression of Parkinson’s Disease.

Keywords: Quercetin, Parkinson’s disease, neuroprotective effects, α -synuclein protein, α -synuclein-associated molecular hallmarks, antioxidant.
