Abstract
Formation of superoxide ions and oxidation process poses a great threat to the degeneration of neurons. This neurodegeneration may result in the neurodegenerative diseases. Superoxide dismutase is an antioxidant enzyme that can be found in all living cells. And hence it has been considered for the treatment of the neurodegenerative diseases like alzheimers. Synthetic SOD mimetics have been identified which have been tested for their neuroprotective action in many of the neurodegenerative diseases. This review includes a detailed exploration of activity of Superoxide dismutase and its mimetics in the neurodegenerative diseases.
