THC protected human neuronal cells from three different toxins used to model Parkinson’s-related damage.
It reduced oxidative stress and cell death, helping the cells survive toxic injury.
The protective effect was strongly linked to activation of PPARγ, a pathway involved in inflammation, metabolism, and cell survival.
