*Insect study
*In conclusion our data show that the PD model by expression of Sph-1 in dopaminergic neurons provides a good opportunity to study the early prodromal stages of PD, while also the late onset symptoms such as neurodegeneration and motor impairment in aged animals. On the other hand, working on this animal model has allowed us to advance on the therapeutic effects of nicotine treatment over several PD-linked features. The protective effect of nicotine appears to be specific for the genotype predisposed to develop a parkinsonian phenotype and provide a hint on the idea that nicotine treatment even in later stages of the disease could be beneficial to patients. Our findings provide new ideas that contribute to a better understanding on the mechanisms underlying the positive effects of nicotine in PD.
