GPER1-mediated immunomodulation and neuroprotection in the myenteric plexus of a mouse model of Parkinson's disease

Lewy pathology affects the gastrointestinal tract in Parkinson's disease (PD) and recent reports suggest a link between the disorder and gut inflammation. In this study, we investigated enteric neuroprotection and macrophage immunomodulation by 17β-estradiol (E2) and the G protein-coupled estro...
