Neuroprotective effect of Prunusaviumon on cerebral ischemic stroke in rats
Journal Title: Indian Journal of Research in Pharmacy and Biotechnology - Year 2015, Vol 3, Issue 6
Abstract
In this study we use anthocyanins which have both COX-2 inhibitory action and antioxidant activity. Anthocyanins are richly concentrated as pigments in berries. They belong to class of flavonoids, they are water soluble vacuolar pigments that may appear red, purple or blue according to PH. Anthocyanins obtained from berries have therapeutic uses in cancer, aging, and neurological diseases, inflammation, diabetes, bacterial infections, fibrocystic diseases the present work is aimed at evaluating the cyclooxygenase-II inhibitory activity and antioxidant activity of anthocyanins obtained from Prunusaviumin on cerebral ischemic stroke model in rat.
