Abstract
⺠The anti-epileptic drug, valproic acid, exhibits neuroprotective activity in an animal model of Parkinson's disease. ⺠Valproic acid attenuates dopaminergic neurodegeneration associated with human α-synuclein overproduction in C. elegans. ⺠Neuroprotection by valproic acid is mediated through ERK-MAPK signaling in vivo.
