Inhibition of histone deacetylase promotes a neuroprotective mechanism in an experimental model of Parkinson's disease.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Introduction: Therapies targeting histone deacetylase (HDAC) have gained wider attention in the treatment of various clinical conditions. However, the use of HDAC inhibitors in pre-clinical trials in the case of Parkinson's disease (PD) is very limited. In the present study, the HDAC inhibitor, entinostat, was tested in animals induced with Parkinson's disease experimentally. Material and methods: Wistar male rats (150 ±10 g) were administered with rotenone (2 mg/kg/day, s.c.) for 21 days to induce PD, while entinostat (20 mg/kg) was given intraperitoneally. Then, the neurological functions, PD markers, and HDACs were analysed in the control and experimental animals. Results: The results demonstrated that rats that received entinostat displayed progressive motor, behavioural, and neurological function with attenuated α-synuclein and improved tyrosine-hydroxylase compared to control cells. Moreover, the induction of PD in rats demonstrated reduced levels of H2S, dopamine, 3, and 4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid (DOPAC), and increased monoamine oxidase activity in PD rats. However, the rats that received entinostat demonstrated progressive levels of dopa and DOPAC, with attenuated levels of HDAC-2, -4, and -6 mRNA in the PD rats compared to controls. On the other hand, elevated ( Conclusions: The study results suggest that inhibition of HDAC systematically improves the neurological functions, and hence treatments, emphasizing that HDACI, as the speculated mechanism, will be a promising mode of treatment in PD.
