Role of dietary antioxidants in neurodegenerative diseases: Where are we standing? Curr Pharm Des. 2020 Jan 07;: Authors: Bakir S, Catalkaya G, Ceylan FD, Khan H, Guldiken B, Capanoglu E, Kamal MA Abstract This review presents the potential effects of dietary antioxidants on neurodegenerative diseases. The relationship of autoimmunity and antioxidants, as well as their preventive effect on neurodegenerative diseases are evaluated. The driven factors of neurodegeneration and the potential effects of natural antioxidants are summarized for Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, multiple sclerosis, spongiform encephalopathy, Huntington's disease, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). The effect of oxidative stress on neurodegenerative diseases and regulative effect of antioxidants on oxidative balance is discussed. This review provides beneficial information for the possible cure of neurodegenerative diseases with dietary intake of antioxidants. PMID: 31914905 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
