Therapeutic effects of eugenol in a rat model of traumatic brain injury: A behavioral, biochemical, and histological study.

Background And Aim: Traumatic brain injury (TBI) results in death or long term functional disabilities. Eugenol is demonstrated to be beneficial in a range of experimental models of neurological disorders via its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. Thus, the present study was designed to investigate the neuroprotective effects of eugenol in a weight-drop induced rat model of TBI.
