摘要: Rotenone is a naturally occurring plant product used as an insecticide, pesticide and piscicide.
It is lipophilic in nature and can cross the blood-brain barrier and induce the degeneration
of neurons. It inhibits the mitochondrial respiratory chain complex I and stops the transfer of electrons.
It induces ROS generation, which impairs mitochondrial activity. Rotenone is a toxic agent
which causes the death of neurons. The present review describes the effect of rotenone on neurodegeneration
with an emphasis on behavioral, pathological and neuropathological components carried
out on various experimental models such as cell lines, Drosophila melanogaster, mice and
rats.
