The amount of riboflavin is lower in PD patients compared to healthy and disease controls, suggesting that taking riboflavin supplements may be beneficial (Coimbra and Junqueira, 1988) and daily doses of riboflavin for 6 months showed improved motor capacity of PD patients in 3 months (Coimbra and Junqueira, Among the Supplements Creatine Shows the Most Promise as a Neuroprotective Agent Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10), also known as ubiquinone, is a promising agent for neuroprotection in PD and other neurodegenerative diseases because of its role in the mitochondrial electron transport chain (METC) and as an antioxidant (Beal and Shults, 2004), suppressing intra-mitochondrial and intra-nuclear biosynthesis of 8-OH-2dG, inhibiting translocation of caspase-3, attenuating -synuclein expression, and blocking intra-mitochondrial accumulation of metal ions (Ebadi et al., Animal studies have shown that rotenone-induced parkinsonism reduced CoQ10 concentrations in plasma and the striatum with a corresponding decrease in striatal levels of DA, mitochondrial complex I activity and ATP levels, as well as significant increase in B-cell lymphoma 2 (Bcl-2) expression (Abdin and Hamouda, 1999)

Its possible that the study wasnt long enough to show all the beneficial effects over time, Chen says
Here, they engage the cytosolic Ab receptor TRIM21, resulting in degradation of the viral vector and stimulation of innate immune signaling pathways [355,356,357]
L-carnitine by itself (15) (23) or in combination with Coenzyme Q10 (33) may also relieve chemotherapy-related fatigue, reduce fatigue in both younger hypothyroid patients receiving levothyroxine, and in thyroid cancer patients who have hypothyroidism, post-surgery (41)
