Abstract
Parkinson disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease (NDD) of the brain. It has been reported that prolactin (PRL) hormone plays a differential effect in PD, may be increasing, reduced or unaffected. PRL level is dysregulated in different neurodegenerative disorders including PD. Preclinical and clinical studies pointed out that PRL may has a neuroprotective against PD neuropathology . Though, the mechanistic role of PRL in PD is not fully elucidated. Therefore, the objective of the present review was to clarify the potential role and mechanistic pathway of PRL in PD neuropathology. The present review highlighted that PRL appears to have a neuroprotective effect against PD neuropathology by inhibiting the expression of pro-inflammatory signaling pathways, antioxidant effects and by inhibiting neuroinflammation. Thus, preclinical and clinical studies are warranted in this regard.
