Phytoestrogen α-Zearalanol Improves Memory Impairment and Hippocampal Neurogenesis in Ovariectomized Mice
Estrogen is known to provide robust protection of memory in postmenopausal women, but the fact that estrogen may increase the incidence of uterine and breast tumors has undoubtedly limited the clinical use of estrogen. In the present study, the effect of α-zearalanol (α-ZAL), a plant-derived phytoestrogen with low side-effect on uterine and breast, on memory has been evaluated in ovariectomized...
متن کاملPhytoestrogen α-zearalanol ameliorates memory impairment and neuronal DNA oxidation in ovariectomized mice
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of a novel phytoestrogen, α-Zearalanol, on Alzheimer's disease-related memory impairment and neuronal oxidation in ovariectomized mice. METHODS Female C57/BL6 mice were ovariectomized or received sham operations and treatment with equivalent doses of 17β-estradiol or α-Zearalanol for 8 weeks. Their spatial learning and memory were ana...
متن کاملAdult Hippocampal Neurogenesis and Memory
Adult neurogenesis, a concept emergent in the late 1990s, is the generation of new neurons in the adult brain. This process occurs thank to cells who have this proliferative feature, named as Neural Stem Cells (NSCs). Neural Stem Cells (NSCs) are primary progenitors who can generate the two neural types (neurons and glia). Classically it was assumed that NSCs are only present in the embryo, but...

متن کاملtransforming growth factor -α improves memory impairment and neurogenesis following ischemia reperfusion
objective: stroke is most important cause of death and disability in adults. the hippocampal ca1 and sub-ventricular zone neurons are vulnerable to ischemia that can impair memory and learning functions. although neurogenesis normally occurs in the dentate gyrus (dg) of the hippocampus and sub-ventricular zone (svz) following brain damage, this response is unable to compensate for severely dama...
