The present research was conducted on 170 rats dividing into two groups. One group received HHKV extract at a dose of 2 g/kg/day continuously for 14 days. The other group received TCTN1 extract at a dose of 3 g/kg/day for 30 days. After 14 and 30 days of experiment, a half of each group received an electrical shock and the remainder didn't receive such treatment Malonyl dialdehyd (MDA) of rat’s...

aim: aquaporin4 (aqp4) is the main water channel in the brain that has important role in water transport across blood- brain- barrier. it has been proved that intracranial pressure and also expression of aqp4 increase in some disorders such as hydrocephalus, hyponatremia, cytotoxic oedema and brain tumours and drugs that can decrease the expression of this aqp can offer some treatment for these...

Olive leaves have an antioxidant capacity, and olive leaf extract can protect the blood, spleen and hippocampus in lead-poisoned mice. However, little is known about the effects of olive leaf extract on lead-induced brain injury. This study was designed to determine whether olive leaf extract can inhibit lead-induced brain injury, and whether this effect is associated with antioxidant capacity....

objective: following traumatic brain injury, disruption of blood-brain-barrier and consequent brain edema are critical events which might lead to increasing intracranial pressure (icp), and nerve damage. the current study assessed the effects of aqueous date fruit extract (adfe) on the aforementioned parameters. materials and methods: in this experimental study, diffused traumatic brain injury ...

Effect of alcoholic extract of roots of Rubia cordifolia was studied on elevated blood glucose level in alloxan treated animals. The extract reduced the blood sugar level raised by alloxan. Effect of alcoholic extract was also investigated on cold restraint induced stress and on scopolamine-induced memory impairment. Alcoholic extract enhanced brain gamma-amino-n-butyric acid (GABA) levels and ...

Up to the present, Alzheimer’s disease (AD), a dementia, is believed to be incurable; even its cause has not been documented. A few hypotheses have been postulated, however; among these are the destruction of acetylcholine by the enzyme acetylcholineesterase, the accumulation of amyloid beta plaque, and peroxidation of the brain cells. Since the disease was unknown in the olden days in Thailand...

background: the aim of the present study was to evaluate the radioprotective effect of grewia asiatica fruit pulp extract (gae) on swiss albino mice exposed to gamma radiation. in the present study radioprotective efficacy of grewia asiatica (rich in anthocyanin, carotenes, vitamin c, etc.) was studied against radiation induced biochemical alterations in mice cerebrum. materials and methods: fo...
