The Neuroprotection of Hydrogen Sulfide Against MPTP-Induced Dopaminergic Neuron Degeneration Involves Uncoupling Protein 2 Rather Than ATP-Sensitive Potassium Channels

Abstract

H(2)S protects DA neurons against degeneration in a UCP2 rather than Kir6.2/K-ATP channel-dependent mechanism, which will give us an insight into the potential of H(2)S in terms of opening up new therapeutic avenues for PD.
