Phthalides are a relatively small group of natural compounds confined to several plant families and some genera of fungi and liverworts. They are divided into two structural groups, the monomeric and dimeric phthalides, and known mainly as bioactive constituents of different plant species used
Stroke is the third most common cause of death worldwide. Recent findings showed that the severity of cerebrovascular diseases including ischemic stroke correlates with inflammation mediated responses in the neural cells. During ischemia, inflammatory mediators including tumor necrosis factor-alpha
Ligustrazine, also known as 2,3,5,6-tetramethylpyrazine (TMP), one of the major active compounds of Ligusticum wallichii Franchat., has been shown to reduce neuroinflammation and protect neurons during cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury. However, whether it reduces blood-brain barrier (BBB)
