Parkinson's disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disease, after Alzheimer's disease, and becomes increasingly prevalent with age. α-Synuclein (α-syn) forms the major filamentous component of Lewy bodies, which are pathological hallmarks of α-synucleinopathies such as PD. We evaluated the neuroprotective effects of MT101-5, a standardized herbal formula that consists of an ethanolic extract of Genkwae Flos, Clematidis Radix, and Gastrodiae Rhizoma, against α-synuclein-induced cytotoxicity in vivo. MT101-5 protected against behavioral deficits and loss of dopaminergic neurons in human α-syn-overexpressing transgenic mice after treatment with 30 mg/kg/day for 5 months. We investigated transcriptomic changes within MT101-5 mechanisms of action (MOA) suppressing α-syn aggregation in an α-synuclein preformed fibril (α-syn PFF) mouse model of sporadic PD. We found that inhibition of α-syn fibril formation was associated with changes in transcripts in mitochondrial biogenesis, electron transport, chaperones, and proteasomes following treatment with MT101-5. These results suggest that the mixed herbal formula MT101-5 may be used as a pharmaceutical agent for preventing or improving PD.
