Microglia-mediated neuroinflammation is implicated in multiple neurodegenerative disorders, including Parkinson’s disease (PD). Hence, the modulatioein of sustained microglial activation may have therapeutic potential. This study is designed to test the neuroprotective efficacy of taurine, a major intracellular free β-amino acid in mammalian tissues, by using paraquat and maneb-induced PD model. Results showed that mice intoxicated with paraquat and maneb displayed progressive dopaminergic neurodegeneration and motor deficits, which was significantly ameliorated by taurine. Taurine also attenuated the aggregation of α-synuclein in paraquat and maneb-intoxicated mice. Mechanistically, taurine suppressed paraquat and maneb-induced microglial activation. Moreover, depletion of microglia abrogated the dopaminergic neuroprotective effects of taurine, revealing the role of microglial activation in taurine-afforded neuroprotection. Subsequently, we found that taurine suppressed paraquat and maneb-induced microglial M1 polarization and gene expression levels of proinflammatory factors. Furthermore, taurine was shown to be able to inhibit the activation of NADPH oxidase (NOX2) by interfering with membrane translocation of cytosolic subunit, p47phox and nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) pathway, two key factors for the initiation and maintenance of M1 microglial inflammatory response. Altogether, our results showed that taurine exerted dopaminergic neuroprotection through inactivation of microglia-mediated neuroinflammation, providing a promising avenue and candidate for the potential therapy for patients suffering from PD.
