The prevention of age-related neurodegenerative disorders is an important issue in an aging society. Microglia-mediated neuroinflammation resulting in dopaminergic neuron loss may lead to the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease (PD). Lipopolysaccharide (LPS), an endotoxin, induces neuroinflammatory microglial activation, contributing to dopaminergic neuron damage. Diosgenin is a phytosteroid sapogenin with a wide spectrum of pharmacological activities, e.g., anti-inflammatory activity. However, the preventive effect of diosgenin on neuroinflammation is not clear. Thus, in this study, we further investigated the neuroprotective effect of diosgenin on LPS-induced neural damage in vitro and in vivo.
