Morin attenuated the global cerebral ischemia via antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antiapoptotic mechanisms in rats.

Global cerebral ischemia is one of the major causes of memory and cognitive impairment. Hyperactivation of acetylcholine esterase (AChE), oxidative stress, and inflammation are reported to cause memory and cognitive impairment in global cerebral ischemia. Morin, a flavonoid, is reported to have neuroprotective properties through its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory in multiple neurological diseases.

Tangeretin confers neuroprotection, cognitive and memory enhancement in global cerebral ischemia in rats.

Global cerebral ischemia is commonly associated with neurological deficits, including cognitive and memory impairments. The present study aims to investigate the neuroprotective, cognitive, and memory enhancement effects of Tangeretin, a flavonoid against global cerebral ischemia in rats. Bilateral common carotid artery occlusion (BCCAO) and reperfusion injury method was used to induce global cerebral ischemia in rats.
