    Abstract:

    Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder primarily characterized by resting tremor, muscular rigidity, akinesia and postural reflex impairment. Behavioral tests of PD in animal models are essential for understanding the pathogenesis of PD as well as for the development and testing of potential therapeutics. Here we mainly use the 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA)-induced rat model, to introduce a review on the research progress in non-drug-induced behavioral tests of motor function in PD rats.
