The peel of Citrus kawachiensis (Kawachi Bankan), a citrus species grown in Ehime, Japan, is abundant in auraptene. Auraptene, a coumarin compound, have been shown to exert anti-inflammatory effects in peripheral tissues, but it was still unclear of the effect in the brain. Hyperglycemia and brain
Cerebral ischemia/reperfusion leads to delayed neuronal cell death, resulting in brain damage. Auraptene (AUR) and naringin (NGIN), which exert neuroprotective effects in ischemic brain, are abundant in the peel of Citrus kawachiensis. Although parts of AUR/NGIN are transited from the peel to the
Cerebral ischemia causes delayed neuronal cell death in the hippocampus resulting in sequential cognitive impairments. Hyper-activated inflammation following ischemia is one of the etiologies for delayed neuronal cell death. In the present study, using a transient global ischemia mouse model, we
Vascular dementia and Alzheimer disease are most common type of dementia. These diseases have been associated with cognitive decline and affected personal behavioral activities. Moreover, the pattern of cerebral blood flow in mild cognitive disorder has appeared as a predictive indication for the
We have recently shown that 3,5,6,7,8,3',4'-heptamethoxyflavone (HMF) and auraptene (AUR) have neuroprotective effects on the central nervous system. HMF, a citrus flavonoid, altered NMDA-type glutamate receptor antagonist MK-801-induced memory dysfunction and schizophrenia-positive symptom-like
