7 extra animals will be taken extra in
each study for the randomization purpose
3.0 METHOD:
· Healthy
animals will be selected, randomized based on body weight and divided into 5 different
groups consisting of 7 animals each.
ROTENONE INDUCED
PARKINSONISM DISEASE (PD)
·
The Rotenone solution
thus prepared will be administered at 1ml/kg body weight/day intraperitoneally to
all the groups till 9th day, except for the normal control group
which receives only the vehicle (DMSO+Miglyol 812N).
·
The respective treatment
groups will receive their treatment from the day of starting of rotenone
injection.
·
During daily handling, animals
will be observed for the emergence of PD phenotype.The animals will be assessed
for their motor and behavioral scores on day 6, day 9 and day 11.
·
The trial and standard
drug treatment will be continued till the animals develop debilitating phenotype
or till the 11th day.
·
Animals developing
debilitating phenotype – limiting their mobility, feeding or grooming; will be
sacrificed and brain samples will be collected from them for further analysis.
4.0 END POINT PARAMETER(S):

& Behavioral Assessment

Open field test
b) Pole
test
c)
Rearing behavior
d) Postural

· Time taken for the
development of debilitating PD phenotype
· Oxidative stress
assessment
· a)
Measuring the extent of lipid peroxidation (LPO) in brain homogenates
· b)
Measurement of reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation in the brain regions
· Estimation of striatal
Dopamine levels
· Brain histopathological
examination.
