Effect of Apigenin on Neurodegenerative Diseases

Neurodegenerative diseases (NDDs), such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's, are the most frequent age-related illnesses affecting millions worldwide. No effective medication for NDDs is known to date and current disease management approaches include neuroprotection strategies with the hope of maintaining and improving the function of neurons. Such strategies will not provide a cure on their own but are likely to delay disease progression by reducing the production of neurotoxic chemicals such as reactive oxygen species (ROS) and related inflammatory chemicals. Natural compounds such as flavonoids that provide neuroprotection via numerous mechanisms have attracted much attention in recent years. This review discusses evidence from different research models and clinical trials on the therapeutic potential of one promising flavonoid, apigenin, and how it can be helpful for NDDs in the future prospects. We have also discussed its chemistry, mechanism of action, and possible benefits in various examples of NDDs.
