Increasing evidence has suggested a role for environmental factors, such as exposure to pesticides, in the pathogenesis of Parkinson’s disease. In experimental animals the exposure to rotenone, a common herbicide and piscicide, induces features of parkinsonism by inhibiting the activity of mitochondrial complex I. Here we propose to investigate rotenone-induced death of neurons by using primary neuron-enriched and neuron-glia cultures from the rat hippocampus and ventral mesencephalon. The neuronal loss was evaluated with the colorimetric MTT assay. Our results showed significant reduction in the cell viability after exposure to rotenone in a dose- but not in a timedependent manner. We also discovered a remarkable feature of rotenon...
