Corticostriatal glutamate-mediated dynamic therapeutic efficacy of electroacupuncture in a parkinsonian rat model
•EA commonly protects dopaminergic neuronsby reducing neuroinflammation, oxidative stress, and apoptosis. | |
•New findings reveal that EA alleviates motor symptoms in a parkinsonian rat model without restoring striatal dopamine levels. | |
•EA effectively suppresses excessiveglutamate transmission and high-beta synchronization, contributing to motorsymptom relief. | |
| •Activation of corticostriatalglutamatergic projections may hinder the efficacy of EA. |
