In addition to their original applications for lowering cholesterol, statins display multiple neuroprotective effects. Inflammatory reactions and the PI3K/AKT/caspase 3 pathway are strongly implicated in dopaminergic neuronal death in Parkinson's disease (PD). This study aims to investigate how simvastatin affects 6‐hydroxydopamine‐lesioned PC12 via regulating PI3K/AKT/caspase 3 and modulating inflammatory mediators.
