Abstract
The pathological characteristics of Parkinson's disease (PD) include dopaminergic neuron damage, specifically disorders caused by dopamine synthesis, in vivo. Plastrum testudinis extract (PTE) and its bioactive ingredient ethyl stearate (PubChem CID: 8122) were reported to be correlated with tyrosine hydroxylase (TH), which is a biomarker of dopaminergic neurons. This suggests that PTE and its small-molecule active ingredient ethyl stearate have...
