Desensitization of 5-HT1A autoreceptors by chronic administration of 8-OH-DPAT.

abstract：:Increasing evidence suggests that oxidative stress may be implicated in the degeneration of dopaminergic neurons in Parkinson's disease (PD), and anti-oxidation have been shown to be effective to PD treatment. Myricetin has been reported to have the biological functions of anti-oxidation, anti-apoptosis, anti-inflamma...
