[ 1 ] - Neuroprotective effects of gallic acid in a rat model of traumatic brain injury: behavioral, electrophysiological and molecular studies

Objective(s): Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is one of the main causes of intellectual and cognitive disabilities. Clinically, it is essential to limit the development of cognitive impairment after TBI.  In the present study, the neuroprotective effects of gallic acid (GA) on neurological score, memory, long-term potentiation (LTP) from hippocampal dentate gyrus (hDG), brain lipid peroxidation an...

[ 2 ] - Antidiabetic effect of honey feeding in noise induced hyperglycemic rat: involvement of oxidative stress

Objective(s):In this study the effect of oral administration of honey on serum glucose, lipids, stress oxidative markers, and morphology of langerhans islets in noise induced hyperglycemic rats was investigated. Materials and Methods: Male Wistar rats were divided into control, hyperglycemic, honey treated control, and honey treated hyperglycemic groups. For induction of hyperglycemia, noise s...

[ 3 ] - Neuroprotective Effects of Myricitrin on Cognitive Deficits in Hippacampal Demyelinated Rats

Background and purpose: Multiple sclerosis (MS) as an autoimmune disease is the most common demyelinating inflammatory disease in young people that affects the central nervous system. Myricitrin (MYR) is known to have antioxidant and neuroprotection effects, so, the current study investigated its effect on cognitive defects in rat models of MS. Materials and methods: In this experimental study...
