[ 1 ] - Protective Effect of Epicatechin on Survival of PC12 Neurons Exposed to Valproic Acid

 Background and purpose: It is well established that valproic acid (VPA) is teratogenic associated with oxidative stress in humans and in all animal species tested. In this study, considering the chemical composition of catechins, we investigated its protective effect on the survival of PC12 nerve cells exposed to valproic acid. Materials and methods: The protective effects of epicatechin (EC)...
